To be able to sell an app via Envato I need to offer a PHP 7.2+ version. I develop for PHP 5 at present.
I have read the couple of topics/posts that discuss issues with PHP 7.
If I upgrade to latest CCS 5.1.1.18992 (PHP) can I continue to build for PHP5? What happens to those projects?
If I install the latest version on my laptop and start a PHP 7 project, can I copy over files from a PHP 5 project and have them work?
Thanks

Hello,
I use CCS with PHP 7.0.33, migrated from version 5.3 and had no problems.

With respect - this doesn't answer my questions.
Oper: CCS4 to CCS5 was easier from what I understand, a conversion process was applied to each project opened in CCS5. The PHP version used was not as big an issue, but I could be wrong.
cleverton: Does CCS latest version run conversion on PHP5 project to operate on PHP7? How did you "migrate" to PHP 7?
Please reply with more information.

I am following this thread as I, too, need to migrate my app from PHP 5.x to 7.x.
Does anyone have experiences to share?
Do I just load the update for CCS and go? Recompile and go? Lots of manual changes?
Thanks for sharing.

I'm seeking advice about upgrading my CCS to version 5.1.1.18992.exe.
My app was developed in CCS_5.1.1.18990. I'm using PHP 5.6.4 now.
Does 5.1.1.18992.exe build code good for PHP 5.6.4? Or is it just for PHP 7.x?
Also -- what app code changes should I expect to do? I know it depends on various things, but any advice offered is appreciated.
Lane

Lane, I made no progress with this. When I get back to the project I will have to install the new version on another machine eg,. Laptop and play around and see what happens.
It is my understanding that once you upgrade to the latest version you need to convert all projects to PHP 7 but I am not sure how that works.

A few things to note after upgrading your projects in PHP 7:
"A lot of extensions are not ready yet for PHP 7.
If you have functions like “ereg” and “mysql” buried deep inside their code base, they are gonna strike a Backward Compatibility wall as these functions are deprecated and, it is going to be a real pain in the behind to upgrade."
Unless you're doing something custom, using "mysql" calls directly should be minimal.

There is a conversion script to make CCS projects run under PHP >=7.1
https://github.com/barakravid/codecharge_php7fix?fbclid...Z-ase3GHv_-4meQ
I'm not sure, why YesSoftware doesn't implement a minor update with this workaround.
Many developers need to use PHP 7.x now.

Thanks Cyote999,
I have received this previously, the problem is - I have no idea how to run it. Would like to know how that is done.

Just publish your project locally, open the command line tool (windows) go to your htdocs directory and run php conv_fnames.php
(conv_fnames.php must be copied into your publishing dir)

Finally!
Thanks coyote999 - that's exactly what I and others like me needed to know.
I appreciate the time you have taken to supply this information. I'll give it a go in the next few days and see what happens.
