- PHP now has a new stream system that allows it to do some clever stuff with
  fopen() and fsockopen().  As a result:
  . URL wrappers natively supports https:// URLs if you have compiled
    OpenSSL support into PHP (shared extension does not support this).
  . Added support for fopen("ftps://...", ...) which allows to connect to FTP 
    servers via SSL. (Stefan Esser)
  . fsockopen() adds support for ssl:// and tls:// connections via TCP/IP
  . copy($srcfilename, $destfilename) can now be used with URL wrappers
  . zlib wrappers/streams can be used even on systems without fopencookie()
  . Changed 'zlib:' fopen wrapper to 'compress.zlib://' and deprecate
    'zlib:' to avoid ambiguities when filenames have ':' characters. (Wez)
  . Added 'compress.bzip2://' stream and wrapper support.
  . Added user-space streams - it is now possible to define a class in PHP
    code and register it as a URL wrapper. (stream_register_wrapper)
  . Most extensions now support streams when passing files, which means
    that those extensions will now also support URL wrappers. (Wez)
  . Added URL-wrapper support to exif. (Marcus)
  . Added memory stream support. (Marcus)
  . Renamed:
      socket_set_timeout()  -> stream_set_timeout()
      socket_set_blocking() -> stream_set_blocking()
      set_file_buffer()     -> stream_set_write_buffer()
      socket_get_status()   -> stream_get_meta_data()
    As these functions can (in theory) work on any type of stream. (Wez)
  . Raw POST data is now available as "php://input" stream. (Hartmut)
  . fopen("php://output", "wb") returns a stream that writes to the output
    buffer (like echo and print). (Wez)
  . Added stream_context_create(), stream_context_set_params() and
    stream_context_set_option and added an optional fourth parameter to
    fopen() which accepts a stream context.  Contexts allow sharing of
    information between streams (a kind of "session") and setting
	notification callbacks. (Wez)
  . Made the "User-Agent" header sent by http:// and https:// wrappers
	configurable in php.ini or via a stream context. (Sterling)
  . Added stream_filter_prepend() and stream_filter_append() which apply
    a filter to either the top or the bottom of a stream filter stack.
    Implemented "string.rot13" filter as an example; more filters are
	expected to follow in later releases and other extensions. (Wez)
  . Added stream_select() which works like socket_select but works on
    streams returned by fopen(), fsockopen() and pfsockopen() instead. (Wez)
  . Added STDIN, STDOUT and STDERR constants for CLI sapi reflecting opened
    streams to their respective standard I/O counterparts. (Edin)
  . Added php.ini option "auto_detect_line_endings" which enables PHP to
    detect Macintosh, Unix and Dos end-of-line characters in fgets() and
	file(). Fixes bugs #16521 and #16708. (Wez)
  . Fixed include(), require() and GD functions to work with remote files
    under win32.
	Fixed bug #18609 (ImageCreateFromJPEG can't fetch from a URL). (Wez)
- Fixed bug #18022 (fopen does not work with php://stdin anymore on Solaris).
  (Wez)
- Added php.ini option "default_socket_timeout" to set the timeout limit for 
  PHP network streams. (kalowsky, ilia@prohost.org, Wez)

  This function also supports the URL wrappers. (Wez)

        declare (ticks=1);

        //Enables the ticks modifier for just the lexical block containing

- Fixed a bug in socket_select() that could cause unexpected behavior when
  using a statement like $w = $e = array($sock); This change unfortunately
  prevents the use of constant values (e.g. NULL) for the socket array
  paramaters. Instead, use a temporary variable or an expression with the
  leftmost member being a temporary variable. ex.:
  socket_select($w, $r, $e = NULL, 10); (Jason)
- Fixed crashes in the session serializer. (Stas)
- Fixed malformed atime/mtime with touch(). (Yasuo)
- Fixed a couple of bugs in array_sum() and array_merge(). (Andrei)

  because of a missing Release() call. (Alan, Harald)

22 Apr 2002, Version 4.2.0
- ATTENTION!! register_globals defaults to 'off' now !!!

- PostgreSQL functions are renamed, but all old function names are available.
  Old function names will be available long enough. User can safely use old
  function names. (Yasuo)

- Fixed pg_last_notice() crash. (Yasuo)
- Modified the mysql extension to disable 'LOAD LOCAL' when safe mode is 
  enabled. (Jason)
- Added CLI (command line interface) sapi which is more suitable for writing 
  shell scripts. Some of the differences to CGI sapi are: no HTTP headers, 
  plain text error messages, does not change working directory, have a new -r
  option which executes a piece of PHP code directly from the commmand line, etc.
  (Edin)
- Fixed HTTP file upload support to handle big files better. (Jani)
- Major modifications to the Sockets Extension and its API (Jason):
  . Fixed numerous bugs.

  . Corrected and standardized host lookup errors
  . Modified socket_recv() behavior. [$r=socket_recv($sock, $buf, $len, $flags)]
  . Added socket_set_block() which changes a socket into blocking IO mode
  . Modified socket_last_error() to not clear the last error
  . Added socket_clear_error() which clears the last error on a socket
  . Removed all code pertaining to fd_sets (socket_fd_*)
  . Modified/Improved socket_select() to accept array of resources instead of 
    fd_sets. example: 
    <?php 
          $wfds=$rfds=array($sock1, $sock2, $sock3, $sock7);
          $r=socket_select($rfds, $wfds, NULL, 1);
          print "Ready to read:\n"; var_dump($rfds);
    ?>
- Fixed segfault in ibase_close() if user does not free the resultset.

  well as a class instance. (Andrei, Zend Engine)

  also provide the GUID of the TypeLib - entry or an IID for preloading
  type - information. (Harald)
