The latest version boasts a wide range of improvements and brand new features that are aimed at making PHP much safer and easier to work with. Here is a list of the key new features included in the new release: - added support for constant scalar expressions - numeric and string literals and/or constants are now allowed in static-value contexts, such as constant and property declarations or default function arguments. - variadic functions via ‘...’ - the variadic functions can now be implemented through the ‘...’ operator, instead of the func_get_args() function. - аrgument unpacking via ‘…’ - the аrrays and traversable objects can be unpacked into argument lists when calling functions through the ‘...’ operator. - exponentiation via ‘**’ - a right associative ** operator and a **= shorthand assignment operator have been added to support exponentiation. - use function and use const - the use operator now supports importing functions (via the use function construct) and constants (via the use const construct), apart from classes. - phpdbg - PHP now includes an interactive debugger called phpdbg, which is implemented as a SAPI module. - default character encoding - the default_charset is now used as the default character set for functions that are encoding-specific, such as htmlspecialchars(). The default value for this setting is UTF-8. - large file uploads - files larger than 2 gigabytes in size are now supported. - SSL/TLS improvements - peer verification is enabled by default, support for certificate fingerprint matching is now included, mitigation against TLS renegotiation attacks is activated; many new SSL context options, which allow better control over the protocol/verification settings when using encryption, are included too.
