• `$objString` : [Only Commercial Edition]

  > This class provides helper functions for managing and manipulating string data consistently and in a reusable way.

  echo $objString->quote($str, '\'');
  

• `$utf8` : [Only Commercial Edition]

  > A utility class providing methods for handling UTF-8 strings, detecting and validating encoding.

  /
   * Repeat a string
   * @param string $string        The string to be repeated.
   * @param int $times            Number of times the string should be repeated.
   *                              Times has to be greater than or equal to 0. If set to 0, 
   *                              the function will return an empty string.
   * @param ?string $encoding     The character encoding to use. Defaults to 'UTF-8' if omitted or null.

Global Functions

• `formatBytes` : The `$bytes` argument can now accept float values. The result generation process has also been improved.

  // Global function
  formatBytes(float|int $bytes, int $precision = 2): string
  

Classes

• `TArrayHandler` : - `__construct` : In the commercial edition, an argument supporting report handling has been added.

  ```php public function __construct(array $array = [], array $properties = [], ?TLoggerHandler $logger = null) ```

  - `getInstance` : An instance method has been added to the class. In the commercial edition, an argument supporting report handling has been added.

  ```php public static function &getInstance(array $array, array $properties = [], ?TLoggerHandler $logger = null) ```

  - `fromJSON` : 1. Added the `depth` argument for dynamic selection of the maximum nesting depth for JSON decoding. Default: 512.

  ```php public function fromJSON(string $json, ?string $key = null, int $depth = 512): bool ``` 2. The character encoding of retrieved JSON file content is now UTF8.

  - `fromJSONFile` : 1. Added the `depth` argument for dynamic selection of the maximum nesting depth for JSON decoding. Default: 512.

  ```php public function fromJSONFile(string $filePath, ?string $key = null, int $depth = 512): bool ```

  - `toJSON` : 1. Fixed storage error in JSON files when saving UTF8 characters. 2. Added the `$array` argument for supporting an external array. If not provided, it returns the internal array `$this->array`.

  ```php public function toJSON(?array $array = null): string ``` 3. Added new functionality.

  - `toJSONFile` : 1. Added the `$array` argument for external array selection. If not provided, it returns the internal array `$this->array`.

  ```php public function toJSONFile(string $filePath, ?array $array = null) ```
