For the first problem:

OSX Leopard, it has seemed for a while, like the app was decaying - growing progressively crashier the more I used it. Literally, to the point where I could use it. I think, however, I have solved the issue. [...] This just explicitly makes it use JVM 1.5, which is, after all, what it was built for.

And for the second (text selection):

If you are still using Zend Studio 5.5, and recently upgrade to Snow Leopard, you will have spotted pretty quickly there is a pretty severe display bug when selecting text. The reason for this, is that Snow Leopard only ships with Java 1.6 and 1.3 (wtf?) [...] It essentially comes down to this: Grab the Java 1.5 JDK from Leopard (original) and then tell OSX to use the 32bit version by default.

Let me tell you, I've been waiting for this release. However, I am extremely disappointed that it does not fully support PHP 5.1. I was under the impression that this was the primary purpose of the release.

Of course, since this release is not yet publicly displayed at zend.com (I got it from downloads.zend), perhaps there are plans for the debugger to be released soon independent of the IDE.

The upgrade to the debugger would be a definite improvement, and can really help to push more users forward with all of the new developments with PHP...]]> Mon, 02 Jan 2006 06:53:12 -0600
