PHP 4.3.0 final

After a long and arduous 8 months of development and testing, PHP 4.3.0 is out! With regard to scope, time, and effort, this is the largest 4.x release of PHP, and it further elevates PHP’s standing as a serious contender in the general purpose scripting language arena. Command line interfaceChanges in Current Version:

This version finalizes the separate command line interface (CLI) that can be

  used for developing shell and desktop applications

A very important "under the hood" feature is the streams API

This iteration of the build system, among other things, replaces the slow recursive

  make with one global Makefile and eases the integration of proper dependencies

GD library is now bundled with the distribution and it is recommended to always

  use the bundled version

Vpopmail and cybermut extensions are moved to PECL

Several deprecated extensions (aspell, ccvs, cybercash, icap) and SAPIs (fastcgi,

  fhttpd) are removed

Various security fixes (imap, mysql, mcrypt, file upload, gd, etc)

Apache2 filter is improved, but is still considered experimental

Significant improvements in dba, gd, pcntl, sybase, and xslt extensions

Zend Engine has some fixes and minor performance enhancements
