many of us still use 5.2 in our servers. Also IMO some stable xoops modules in php 5.2 may have issues with 5.3.
I will wait when my server change the php version.

I totally missed that.
Yes, PHP 5.2 is still the officially supported version by XOOPS, so it would be beneficial to have TCPDF working on PHP 5.2.

Cedric, any chance to do it?

I simply followed the changes TCPDF project.
If, I can make changes to the script to accommodate PHP 5.2 (I know where the command line specific to 5.3)
but in the future, we could make a more "copy / paste", see her

no need to compatible this new version with the old PHP.
IMO all servers will upgrade php 5.2 at most at the end of 2013.
Also xoops 2.5.5 is compatible with 5.2 and we should wait for xoops 2.6 stable version too.
until that time we can use tcpdf_for_xoops 1.05 in our production websites.

my server upgrade php to 5.3 so there is no problem for me.

But i have the old issue. my server report me makepdf.php exceed the defined limits for resource usage (CPU and Memory).
so i should disable it.
my limitations are below:
Quote:

Average Server Resource Limits
Memory usage may not exceed 10% per domain/file/application
CPU usage may not exceed 20% per domain/file/application
Apache connections may not exceed 30 connections
15 MySQL maximum user connections allowed
350 emails per hour, per domain


Now it used over 100% CPU for newbb/makepdf.php
I had this issue with news and article so i disabled them 4 years ago.

the site traffic is rather high and monthly bandwidth is about 200Gig
