PHP 8.3 is out

bikegremlin · November 2023

For all the fans of always-updating and using the latest & greatest versions, you do not want to miss this one!

It's out. Fresh, smokin' hot, and yes, your code will not work until you patch it.

One and only - PHP 8.3!

Bet that if I upgrade the buildserver for microLXC to PHP 8.3 it will pass?

It might. Check the list of the incompatible & deprecated changes:
https://www.php.net/manual/en/migration83.php

Though I would wait for the 8.3.1 either way. Colour me slow & conservative.

Nah, I don't rush PHP upgrades.
I tend to upgrade when PHP ends Support for a specific version.

Never touch a running system.
However, I am already testing 1-2 versions ahead, either on my dev system and/or buildserver.

So when I have to upgrade, I can upgrade with confidence.

Yes, ioncube or at least sourceguardian is a vital addon. Hopefully it doesn't take months.
