PHP Version Requirement Scanner

Check PHP files for minimum PHP version requirement

A very useful tool for many of you looking to release your scrips to the public, will be this PHP minimum version requirement checker.

If you ever plan on selling or distributing scripts, it’s vital that you let your customers know the server requirements of your scripts.  Whilst telling them that your script might use the mod_rewrite Apache Module, or that it requires MySQL database, will be fairly easy to know, figuring out the PHP version requirements of your script is not straight forward, and certainly not an easy task if your script is quite complex.

Doing so would require that you write down EVERY PHP function that you use in your script, and then cross-reference to php.net to see what versions can use each function.

Well, say goodbye to that idea thanks to PHPduck!  These amazing folks have created the script for the job!
