Today, I have released the first prealpha release of ProForma on SourceForge. Since it is still in the very early stages of development, this release is intended for testing purposes only. I hope to get some feedback about the code structure and design, as well as any bugs that may exist.
I am proud to announce that I have recently passed Zend’s PHP5 certification exam. I took the test, together with three of my colleagues, in a local test centre here in Ljubljana. The exam was generously paid for by our employer, who I had been trying to persuade to sign us up for more than a year before. In the next few paragraphs I will try to describe the entire experience as much as possible, although I am not allowed to divulge too much information about the exam itself.
As you might already know, the PHP mbstring extension supports a feature called Function Overloading. If turned on, this feature overloads multi-byte string functions on the respective standard string functions. That means that whenever you call a standard string function (like strlen()), it’s multi-byte counterpart (mb_strlen()) is called automatically behind the scenes. This is indeed a very useful feature for UTF-8 sites, if it works properly.
