SQL Anywhere PHP Module for PHP 8.4/8.5

Hi,

is there a chance to get a PHP Module for PHP 8.4 or better 8.5 soon?

Last one for download is for PHP 8.2, of which EOL is December 31, 2026.
Even Active Support (Bug Fixes & Security) for PHP 8.4. ends with same date!

Thanks Florian

There are no plans for updates to PHP given that it was deprecated.

But SAP SQL Anywhere 17 itself is not EOL - don't you think new PHP Modules for current PHP Versions should be provided by SAP?

Chris, "what" exactly has been deprecated?
Ah, as to the docs, the "PHP support" has been deprecated (https://help.sap.com/docs/SAP_SQL_Anywhere/98ad9ec940e2465695685d98e308dff5/3be0f2e16c5f1014b165d5bebb472bdb.html) but I have never read that in a Read.me file...?
