PHP 5.3.0 Compatibility

[eluser]Unknown[/eluser]
my client can't wait for CI 1.7.2

so i have to make several changes myself ;-)

here what i do

A. remove by condition set_magic_quotes_runtime

file: codeigniter/CodeIgniter.php (line: 60)

Code:

if(!phpversion()=='5.3.0')
    set_magic_quotes_runtime(0); // Kill magic quotes

B. remove all new object by reference, change '=&' to '='

from: $objects[$class] =& new $name();
became: $objects[$class] = new $name();

file: codeigniter/Common.php (line: 130)
file: codeigniter/Common.php (line: 136)
file: libraries/Loader.php (line: 255)
file: database/DB.php (line: 133)

Code:

$objects[$class] = new $name();

see: = new


C. since hyphen '-' became special character in php 5.3, change this way:

file: config/config.php (line: 153)

from:

Code:

$config['permitted_uri_chars'] = 'a-z ~%.:_\-';

to:

Code:

$config['permitted_uri_chars'] = '~%.:_\-';

file: libraries/URI.php (line: 189)

from:

Code:

if ( ! preg_match("|^[".preg_quote($this->config->item('permitted_uri_chars'))."]+$|i", $str))

to:

Code:

if ( !
preg_match("|^[\w".preg_quote($this->config->item('permitted_uri_chars'))."]+$|i", $str))

wacth!:
! preg_match("|^[\w


i hope this can help
