I think the answer should be that _eventually_ they should have to migrate, but in the interim we must maintain two build systems.
You are right on the first point, but it is not a requirement for php-src to be managed by anything other than CMake to maintain phpize functionality for existing 3rd party software making use of it. From a quick look, I can tell that it just copies some files that can be generated/configured by CMake if necessary.
Just so we are in the clear, I'm purposefully abstaining from a deep dive into php-src's build tooling, because I would really like the video that I have in mind to be genuine. I had the idea of making a video about this thanks to Andreas Kling's SerenityOS videos and he follows a similar process. -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: https://www.php.net/unsub.php
