PHP 7? #28

Closed toddprouty closed 6 years ago

toddprouty commented 8 years ago

Any plans to include PHP 7 or create a fork that does? I hear there are significant improvements in speed for Craft.

@toddprouty You're in luck! @nickautomatic has been working on a PHP 7 feature branch. We haven't had a chance to fully test it out yet, but if you want to give it a try, let us know you get on. We're hoping to merge it into master soon.

How is progress going on the PHP7 branch? I'm also curious about this for performance reasons.

nickautomatic commented 7 years ago

@hisnameisjimmy The Vagrant box that we're currently using on the PHP 7 feature branch seems to have issues on some versions of OSX. We're currently trying a different Vagrant box to see if that's more reliable, but we won't merge into master until it's working smoothly on all our machines.

In the mean time, the feature branch might be worth trying. If you do, we'd be interested to know if it works for you.

We've been using the php7 branch for a little while now and all seems to be good with the latest versions of VirtualBox and Vagrant as far I can tell.

We should consider merging this unless anyone else has experienced any issues?

Although we might need to fix/revert this commit on master as I think it broke some things if I recall correctly? cc @marcellegane

Whoops. Just seen there's already a PR open and ready to go (#33). Will wait for @marcellegane to confirm.
