PHP 5.2.0 released

Published November 3rd, 2006

Well it’s out (download here). Interesting additions include new Filter, JSON and ZIP extensions, and the previously-mentioned upload progress handling functions (although I can’t seem to find any documentation the the latter). There’s a new error mode — E_RECOVERABLE_ERROR — which allows user-defined error reporting to catch only those errors from which the system can safely recover (ie. non-fatal).

Those considering upgrading should definitely read the upgrading guide before going ahead.
