php-JMSParser-1.0.0-9.fc25 (FEDORA-2017-463c346556)
Library for writing recursive-descent parsers
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:
# php-JMSParser Library for writing recursive-descent parsers. # php-Metadata
This library provides some commonly needed base classes for managing metadata
for classes, methods and properties. The metadata can come from many different
sources (annotations, YAML/XML/PHP configuration files). The metadata classes
are used to abstract away that source and provide a common interface for all of
them. # php-PhpCollection This library adds basic collections for PHP.
Collections can be seen as more specialized arrays for which certain contracts
are guaranteed. Supported Collections: * Sequences * Keys: numerical,
consequentially increasing, no gaps * Values: anything, duplicates allowed
* Classes: Sequence, SortedSequence * Maps * Keys: strings or objects,
duplicate keys not allowed * Values: anything, duplicates allowed *
Classes: Map, ObjectMap (not yet implemented) * Sets (not yet implemented) *
Keys: not meaningful * Values: anything, each value must be unique (===)
* Classes: Set General Characteristics: * Collections are mutable (new
elements may be added, existing elements may be modified or removed).
Specialized immutable versions may be added in the future though. * Equality
comparison between elements are always performed using the shallow comparison
operator (===). * Sorting algorithms are unstable, that means the order for
equal elements is undefined (the default, and only PHP behavior). # php-
PhpOption This package adds an Option type for PHP. The Option type is
intended for cases where you sometimes might return a value (typically an
object), and sometimes you might return no value (typically null) depending on
arguments, or other runtime factors. Often times, you forget to handle the case
where no value is returned. Not intentionally of course, but maybe you did not
account for all possible states of the system; or maybe you indeed covered all
cases, then time goes on, code is refactored, some of these your checks might
become invalid, or incomplete. Suddenly, without noticing, the no value case is
not handled anymore. As a result, you might sometimes get fatal PHP errors
telling you that you called a method on a non-object; users might see blank
pages, or worse. On one hand, the Option type forces a developer to consciously
think about both cases (returning a value, or returning no value). That in
itself will already make your code more robust. On the other hand, the Option
type also allows the API developer to provide more concise API methods, and
empowers the API user in how he consumes these methods.

PhpOption This package adds an Option type for PHP. The Option type is
intended for cases where you sometimes might return a value (typically an
object), and sometimes you might return no value (typically null) depending on
arguments, or other runtime factors. Often times, you forget to handle the case
where no value is returned. Not intentionally of course, but maybe you did not
account for all possible states of the system; or maybe you indeed covered all
cases, then time goes on, code is refactored, some of these your checks might
become invalid, or incomplete. Suddenly, without noticing, the no value case is
not handled anymore. As a result, you might sometimes get fatal PHP errors
telling you that you called a method on a non-object; users might see blank
pages, or worse. On one hand, the Option type forces a developer to consciously
think about both cases (returning a value, or returning no value). That in
itself will already make your code more robust. On the other hand, the Option
type also allows the API developer to provide more concise API methods, and
empowers the API user in how he consumes these methods.

Update Information:
# php-JMSParser Library for writing recursive-descent parsers. # php-Metadata
This library provides some commonly needed base classes for managing metadata
for classes, methods and properties. The metadata can come from many different
sources (annotations, YAML/XML/PHP configuration files). The metadata classes
are used to abstract away that source and provide a common interface for all of
them. # php-PhpCollection This library adds basic collections for PHP.
Collections can be seen as more specialized arrays for which certain contracts
are guaranteed. Supported Collections: * Sequences * Keys: numerical,
consequentially increasing, no gaps * Values: anything, duplicates allowed
* Classes: Sequence, SortedSequence * Maps * Keys: strings or objects,
duplicate keys not allowed * Values: anything, duplicates allowed *
