예제

Example #1 phpversion() example

<?php
// prints e.g. 'Current PHP version: 4.1.1'
echo 'Current PHP version: ' phpversion();

// prints e.g. '2.0' or nothing if the extension isn't enabled
echo phpversion('tidy');
?>

Example #2 PHP_VERSION_ID example and usage

<?php
// PHP_VERSION_ID is available as of PHP 5.2.7, if our 
// version is lower than that, then emulate it
if (!defined('PHP_VERSION_ID')) {
    
$version explode('.'PHP_VERSION);

    
define('PHP_VERSION_ID', ($version[0] * 10000 $version[1] * 100 $version[2]));
}

// PHP_VERSION_ID is defined as a number, where the higher the number 
// is, the newer a PHP version is used. It's defined as used in the above 
// expression:
//
// $version_id = $major_version * 10000 + $minor_version * 100 + $release_version;
//
// Now with PHP_VERSION_ID we can check for features this PHP version 
// may have, this doesn't require to use version_compare() everytime 
// you check if the current PHP version may not support a feature.
//
// For example, we may here define the PHP_VERSION_* constants thats 
// not available in versions prior to 5.2.7

if (PHP_VERSION_ID 50207) {
    
define('PHP_MAJOR_VERSION',   $version[0]);
    
define('PHP_MINOR_VERSION',   $version[1]);
    
define('PHP_RELEASE_VERSION'$version[2]);

    
// and so on, ...
}
?>

If you're trying to check whether the version of PHP you're running on is sufficient, don't screw around with `strcasecmp` etc.  PHP already has a `version_compare` function, and it's specifically made to compare PHP-style version strings.

<?php
if (version_compare(phpversion(), '5.3.10', '<')) {
   
// php version isn't high enough
}
?>

Note that the version string returned by phpversion() may include more information than expected: "5.5.9-1ubuntu4.17", for example.

To know, what are the {php} extensions loaded & version of extensions :

<?php
foreach (get_loaded_extensions() as $i => $ext)
{
   echo
$ext .' => '. phpversion($ext). '<br/>';
}
?>

If you cast the output of phpversion() to a float, it will give you the major and minor version parts as a floating point number.

This will be less useful if the minor version number is 10 or above, but for lower version numbers it works nicely.

<?
$ver = (float)phpversion();
if ($ver > 7.0) {
    //do something for php7.1 and above.
} elseif ($ver === 7.0) {
    //do something for php7.0
} else {
    //do something for php5.6 or lower.
}
?>
