This could be a wonderful new feature for PHP 8: https://github.com/nikic/scalar_objects $string = "Hello world"; $string->toUpper()->replaceAll("world", "PHP 8"); On Fri, Mar 29, 2019 at 12:43 PM Sara Golemon wrote: > On Fri, Mar 29, 2019 at 7:40 AM Joe Watkins wrote: > > Since we now have

Hello, I'd like to add that as the userland developer, it would be nice to be able to build JIT against an active branch (a.k.a PHP 7.4), cause if PHP 8 brings enough changes, it would not be realistic to fix our apps to be compatible with PHP 8 months or years away from actual release. пт, 29

Hi Dmitry, I'm not suggesting we do it right now, I'm suggesting we look at the planning of it right now as it deviates from our normal release cycle. At the moment we should just consider how we want it to work, including when it should start ... Cheers Joe On Fri, 29 Mar 2019 at 14:42,

Hi Joe, I think, PHP-8 preview is too early. We even didn't freeze PHP-7.4 yet, and PHP-8 didn't get any new major features (may be I forgot something) only deprecations and some internal improvements . According to JIT, it's probably going to be changed a lot in the nearest future.
