Latest PECL Releases:

• runkit 1.0.4
  New features: + PHP 5.4, 5.5, and 5.6 are now fully supported - PHP 4.x is not supported anymore + Closures are now accepted by runkit_function_add, runkit_function_redefine, runkit_method_add, and runkit_method_redefine This feature works in PHP 5.3 and above. + Introduced new function "runkit_default_property_remove" (Thanks to Juhan Kundla) + Ability to add non-scalar default properties was added + Magic methods __isset, __unset, __callStatic, serialize, unserialize, debugInfo and __toString are now supported. + Functions runkit_class_adopt & runkit_class_emancipate now change class-hierarchy (issue #13) + Adding and redefining functions and methods, which return references, were fully implemented New optional argument 'return_ref' of functions runkit_function_add and runkit_function_redefine was introduced New constant RUNKIT_ACC_RETURN_REFERENCE was introduced for use with functions runkit_method_add and runkit_method_redefine + Properties adding, removing, and importing were reworked for proper inheritance (including objects in PHP5+) + A new constant RUNKIT_OVERRIDE_OBJECTS was introduced. Use it by bitwise adding to the flags parameter of functions runkit_default_property_add and runkit_import to add (and remove) properties of existing objects. This feature works in PHP 5.x and above and it is switched off by default. + New (the third one) parameter remove_from_objects of boolean type was introduced in runkit_default_property_remove function. Pass the TRUE value to remove property from existing objects. This feature works in PHP 5.x and above. The default value for this parameter is FALSE. + Namespaces are fully supported by constants manipulation functions (Thanks to Antony Dovgal) + Allow disabling of allow_url_include in a Runkit_Sandbox (PHP >= 5.2) (Thanks to Sara Golemon) + New optional argument 'doc_comment' of functions runkit_method_add, runkit_method_redefine, runkit_function_add, and runkit_function_redefine was introduced to specify doc_comments. + Preserve doc_comments on copying and redefining functions and methods.

  Critical fixes: * Highly probable crashes on using Reflection objects after modifying removing or renaming of functions, methods, and properties, for which those Reflection objects have been instantiated, were eliminated * Crash on sandbox creation when register_globals is switched on was fixed * Building and working with PHP4 were fixed * Crash on syntax error in source file importing with runkit_import was fixed * The possible crash on manipulating constants having length less than two characters was eliminated * Crash after using runkit_class_adopt when inherited methods access properties of the parent class (issue #59) * Crash on calling renamed private/protected method (issue #64) * Crash when copied function contains finally (issue #77) (Thanks to Antony Dovgal) * Lists of directories in open_basedir sandbox setting are now supported

  Fixes: * All ways of adding and removing magic methods and old-style constructors were reworked and corrected (Thanks to Anthony Dovgal for issues #35, #57, and #79). * Side effect of redefining, adding and removing class constant (Issue #25) was eliminated * Adding of non-lowercase default properties was fixed (removed lowercasing) * Skip the leading slash in class names * Copying, redefining, and renaming of functions were reworked * Converting of input parameters (class names & function names) to lowecase was eliminated * runkit_method_redefine function now sets the 'prototype' field for the method and its descendants (Thanks to Anthony Dovgal) * Freeing already freed memory on importing of a non-existent file was eliminated * A test for correctness of runkit.superglobals feature was added * Tests for correctness of inheritance of properties were added * Tests for correctness of adding static properties were added * Bug 57649 (https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=57649) has been fixed without apathy ;) Thanks to Sara Golemon for tests. * Importing class extending another class was fixed (Issue #48) (thanks to mido0258) * User-defined functions should remain after Runkit's shutdown (thanks to Sara Golemon for code and to https://github.com/cobrafast for test) * Restoring of misplaced internal functions was corrected (issue #63) * Delete temporary function on errors of adding/redefining methods * runkit_method_add, runkit_method_copy, and runkit_method_rename now override derived methods (issue #62)

  Build system improvements: * PEAR Channel zenovich.github.io/pear was introduced for releasing new packages * Declarations after statement were restricted during compiling * Warnings now will be treated as errors * All tests now succeed under valgrind * A compilation bug (with gcc 4.3+), caused by wrong definition of internal function, was fixed (Thanks to Reeze Xia)

• runkit 1.0.1
  New features: + The patch made by David Sklar was applied to support creation and changing of static methods. The new user-level const "RUNKIT_ACC_STATIC" was introduced. + An ability to import static class properties was added. The new user-level const "RUNKIT_IMPORT_CLASS_STATIC_PROPS" was introduced. + An ability to apply a closure to a sandbox in PHP 5.3+ by calling the call_user_func method was added.

  Main bug-fixes: * Fixes of issues with importing constant arrays into properties and constants * Fixes of issues with importing functions or methods having static variables inside them * The behaviour that old methods had been always overridden by new ones independently from the RUNKIT_IMPORT_OVERRIDE flag was corrected * Compatibility with 5.3+ in zts mode * runkit_function_* functions were fixed with the patch from Keisial at gmail dot com (see the second comment from http://pecl.php.net/bugs/bug.php?id=14086) * The reverting of protected methods via runkit_method_copy was corrected, the segmentation fault on calling restored method was eliminated * Elimination of the segmentation-fault on exit after restoring modified internal functions (see also http://pecl.php.net/bugs/bug.php?id=11632) * Correction for the situation when a method or function having static variables in itself and copied by runkit crashes afterwards on calling if the original method or function was removed * The issue that the runkit used to create new methods with lowercase names was fixed, tests were extended * Methods' prototype detection was fixed

• runkit 1.0.2
  Disappointing incompatibility issue with php 5.3+ in untested code was fixed.
• runkit 1.0.3
  License was changed to the BSD License (3 Clause) Main bug-fixes: * Building on windows-platform was fixed. * The issue with inheritance of methods, which have been created by the runkit_method_rename function, was fixed. * Fixed dumb bug in workarounds based on php-version.
