# Jul 5th 2017, 18:47 savant please do
# Jul 5th 2017, 18:46 mcf I can log an issue since the fix is not trivial.
# Jul 5th 2017, 18:46 mcf PHP 7.2 has changed the behavior of count() BTW. That is causing problems with the QueryCompiler.
# Jul 5th 2017, 18:45 mcf @savant - NP, it seems to hit windows servers more dramatically.
# Jul 5th 2017, 18:45 savant even those running on mod_php…
# Jul 5th 2017, 18:45 savant related to that, no one on the core team could replicate the issue
# Jul 5th 2017, 18:44 savant sincerely appreciated, we def dropped the ball on filing the issue upstream
# Jul 5th 2017, 18:44 savant @mcf also I’d like to thank you for looking into the bug and following up
# Jul 5th 2017, 18:44 WyriHaximus sure
# Jul 5th 2017, 18:44 savant and chronos
# Jul 5th 2017, 18:44 savant yes
# Jul 5th 2017, 18:44 WyriHaximus main cakephp/cakephp repo?
# Jul 5th 2017, 18:44 WyriHaximus Sure give me a moment
# Jul 5th 2017, 18:44 savant `allow_failures` is the travis.ci key
# Jul 5th 2017, 18:44 WyriHaximus 7.2 is nearing stable
# Jul 5th 2017, 18:43 jeremyharris someone more familiar with travis.yml could add it to the build matrix (allowing failures for the time being). if there are a bunch of issues it might just be noise until a stable php release happens
# Jul 5th 2017, 18:43 WyriHaximus Note that is is 7.2-dev so it can be expected to be unstable but it is a good indicator :)
# Jul 5th 2017, 18:43 WyriHaximus https://travis-ci.org/php-api-clients/twitter/jobs/250218773#L175
# Jul 5th 2017, 18:42 jeremyharris cool
# Jul 5th 2017, 18:42 WyriHaximus yes
# Jul 5th 2017, 18:42 jeremyharris on travis?
# Jul 5th 2017, 18:42 WyriHaximus you can test against nightly which is 7.2 at the moment
# Jul 5th 2017, 18:42 jeremyharris that’ll probably reveal the errors we need to fix for the current + future versions
# Jul 5th 2017, 18:41 jeremyharris since it’s not released yet it’s not on travis yet
# Jul 5th 2017, 18:41 savant if it doesnt, then thats a bug and we will fix it asap
# Jul 5th 2017, 18:40 savant @mcf it should be fine to work on 7.2
# Jul 5th 2017, 18:37 mcf @admad do you think a CakePHP issue would be a better place to start a discussion about PHP 7.2? I'm happy to open one.
# Jul 5th 2017, 18:36 mcf You can just use null if you don't need anything too fancy.
# Jul 5th 2017, 18:33 jarard01 if i want to create a form which submits some params for a search, what do i set the 'context' of the form to be?
# Jul 5th 2017, 17:59 mcf BTW - the underlying Chronos problem seems to be caused by a known PHP memory corruption bug according to the PHP team. If their suspicions are correct they have told me that the only fix is to use PHP 7.2. There is no workaround for 7.0 or 7.1.
# Jul 5th 2017, 17:54 mcf It's a show stopper for me, so I will have to use PHP 7.2 if it does prove that it solves the problem (so far so good with my preliminary testing as I said).
# Jul 5th 2017, 17:53 mcf And the Chronos issue is very problematic for those unfortunate enough to hit it.
# Jul 5th 2017, 17:53 mcf Just wanted to see if there was any plan yet.
# Jul 5th 2017, 17:52 mcf Yes. I'm working through an issue with the Query
# Jul 5th 2017, 17:48 admad @mcf have you tried running cake on 7.2?
# Jul 5th 2017, 17:18 mcf And it looks like (after preliminary testing) that the only fix is to upgrade to CakePHP 7.2...
# Jul 5th 2017, 17:18 mcf The last alpha release comes out tomorrow and I'm working through this issue: https://github.com/cakephp/chronos/issues/147
# Jul 5th 2017, 17:15 mcf Not sure if this is the place to ask, perhaps a github issue would be better.. but can anyone comment on CakePHP's plans for PHP 7.2?
# Jul 5th 2017, 17:11 savant @jeremyharris get me a :rubberduck: emoji
# Jul 5th 2017, 16:47 jeremyharris np! :beers:
# Jul 5th 2017, 16:46 pedroseco ok that’s a wrap for today :slightly_smiling_face: Thanks for the help!
