PHP, an HTML-embedded scripting language with syntax borrowed from C, Java and Perl with a couple of unique PHP-specific features thrown in, has been updated to version 5.5.0 Beta 1.

Highlights for PHP 5.5.0 Beta 1:

• The Zend Opcache extension has been added, but it's not enabled by default; • An array_column function that returns a column in a multidimensional array has been added; • Support for non-scalar Iterator keys in foreach has been implemented; • Users can now change the process' title in CLI/CLI-Server SAPIs.

You can check out the official changelog in the readme file incorporated in the source package.
