= PL/php Trac = 

 Welcome to the PL/php Trac site. This site is designed to help us foster a community around PL/php. Recently, PL/php has started seeing more development, and we have recently started releasing new versions.    Please see the [wiki:Downloads] page. 

 PL/php 1.3 was released on 2006-07-14. It has been sitting here for a while and works pretty well. The following we know does not work: 

 {{{ 
 CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION test_func() RETURNS text $$ 

 RETURN phpinfo(); 

 $$ LANGUAGE 'plphp'; 
 }}} 

 It will result in an execution timeout. 

 We also do not currently support in/out parameters but it is on the list.

 PL/php 1.2 was released on 2005-12-13.    This version adds SRF (Set-Returning Function) support.    It is also an attempt to make the build system a bit more independent of your actual setup.    In order to build it, you need to have the apxs program somewhere in your path.    Please report any incompatibility. 

 PL/php 1.1 was released on 2005-12-05.    This version is much cooler than the previous one because you don't have to patch PostgreSQL nor PHP sources -- actually, you don't even need those sources, so it's much easier to install than the previous 1.0 version.    This is the first release since I (Álvaro Herrera) took maintainership of PL/php. 

 == Available Documentation == 

 Please see the [wiki:InstallDocs PL/php Installation procedures]. 

 Before you can use PL/php, you need to [wiki:CreateLang create the language] in the database.    (In PostgreSQL 8.0 you need [wiki:CreateLang80 these instructions instead]). 

 Usage Documentation: [wiki:Documentation PL/php User Guide] 

 == Gotchas == 

 The current design of PL/php is not really very portable, as it depends on the Apache PHP SAPI.    In practice, this means that PL/php is not very likely to compile or run on non-Linux platforms, or even on non-stock Linux platforms.    Please see the [http://hosting.commandprompt.com/pipermail/plphp/ mailing list archives]. 

 == Support ==
