Information and documentation:
http://www.phpdoc.org

The PhpDocumentor team would like to announce the release of PhpDocumentor version 1.3.0. This is the first stable release since 2003, and marks a dramatic step up from previous releases.

This release adds in:

  1. full PHP 5 support, including knowledge of internal classes for PHP version 5.1.0+ using the Reflection extension.
  2. highlighting of tutorial XML
  3. beautifying of output from the XML:DocBook/peardoc2:default converter

In addition, the release fixes more than 100 bugs found since version 1.2.3. Output from source highlighting is much more efficient, resulting in slightly smaller file size for option sourcecode=on. Multi-national characters are now allowed in a package name, although internationalization support is not fully complete.

PhpDocumentor is the standard automatic documentation solution for PHP written in PHP. Originally inspired by JavaDoc, PhpDocumentor has over 6 years of battle-testing and is bundled in popular IDEs such as Zend Studio, PHPEdit, PhpEd, and others.

Rss Feed added

An rss feed has been added for phpDocumentor news. I just hacked it up so hopefully it works right. Let me know if you see any problems, the feed should be added to planet.php.net once its been tested a bit.

Stop submitting bugs for __FUNCTION__ crashes

Here is the Section from the FAQ so everyone doesn't have to open a bug report.


################################################################################
Crash/Segfaults
################################################################################
Q: phpDocumentor crashes if I use __FUNCTION__!!!

A: This is caused by a known bug in all PHP versions prior to 4.3.2. It was
fixed in PHP 4.3.2RC1, you must upgrade to PHP 4.3.2 if you use __FUNCTION__
in code that you wish to document (sorry!) or apply the bugfix patch to the
tokenizer extension and recompile php (see the php.internals archive at
php.net for help)
