CiviCRM and PHP 5.3 compatibility

[mrl586]

we will support it once both Drupal AND Joomla (the CMS'es that we work with) support PHP 5.3. I also suspect we will have to upgrade a fair number of the PEAR packages we use

Both Drupal (6.14) and Joomla (1.5.15) are now official PHP 5.3.x compatible. When CiviCRM to be published in the PHP 5.3.x compatible version? Today? Tomorrow? In the near future? Before end of this year?

Check : http://drupal.org/node/360605, this kind of gives me impression that you will have to modify php.ini and turn off E_DEPRECATED.

So it looks like Drupal 7 will be fully compatible.

i suspect 3.2 might be PHP 5.3 compatible.

If important to you, please consider investigating and contributing patches towards the same.

Asking the same question periodically does not make it happen

I think that this is better way solve PHP 5.3 compatibility issue on Drupal 6.14. But this fix does not fix CiviCRM's PHP 5.3 compatibility issues.

PS. Can someone fix this bug?

We will address PHP 5.3 compatiblity for the 3.2 release (est release in April / May 2010).

I started testing the latest 3.2 trunk with 5.3 since I'll have a need for this too. Note that you need to set date.timezone in your php.ini, but other than some deprecation warnings from GenCode.php haven't noticed any problems.
