PHP 5.2 Autoloading for Composer

** THIS IS A FORK OF https://bitbucket.org/xrstf/composer-php52 to get and fix full compatibility on PHP 5.2 and also to have the repo hosted on GITHUB **, _(*1)

This package provides a an easy way to get a PHP 5.2 compatible autoloader out of Composer. The generated autoloader is fully compatible to the original and is written into separate files, each ending with _52.php., _(*2)

Note: Currently, updating the autoloader on composer dump-autoload is not possible, as there is no script event yet that one could hook a script into., _(*3)

Usage

In your project's composer.json, add the following lines:, _(*4)

:::json
{
    "require": {
        "webworker01/composer-php52": "1.*@dev"
    },
    "scripts": {
        "post-install-cmd": [
            "webworker01\\Composer52\\Generator::onPostInstallCmd"
        ],
        "post-update-cmd": [
            "webworker01\\Composer52\\Generator::onPostInstallCmd"
        ]
    }
}

After the next update/install, you will have a vendor/autoload_52.php file, that you can simply include and use in PHP 5.2 projects., _(*5)
