PHP 5.3 alpha

    Well what - so we waited for the first alpha release of PHP5.3 !

    From the innovations:
    • Namespaces (so far without documentation)
      Late static binding and __callStatic
      lambda functions and closures
      added some extensions (intl, phar, fileinfo and sqlite3)
      Optional MySQLnd support instead of libmysql
      rejection of Windows support older than Windows 2000 (Windows 98, NT4, etc.) e.)
      adding a new syntax: NOWDOC, limited to GOTO, abbreviated ternary operator (? :)


      PS I draw attention to the author's remark: THIS IS A DEVELEOPMENT PREVIEW - DO NOT USE IT IN PRODUCTION!
