Hi ML,
Short version: Increase the default max_input_nesting_level from 100 to something > 150. Extended version: I am working on a Compiler written for PHP. Before you criticize me, let me explain the entire situation. I work for Doctrine project. Currently we're refactoring the DQL (Doctrine Query Language) compiler, which processes our SQL-similar language and convert it into a valid SQL statement for the driver being used. If you want a comparative, our approach is inspired in known OQL, like JPQL of Hibernate in Java. One example: SELECT u FROM User u It'll be converted into something like: SELECT u.id AS u__id, u.name AS u__name, u.passwd AS u_passwd, u.email AS u__email FROM user u Please notice this is a very simple example, but highlights how does it work. Currently I'm working on the compiler, which has this BNF: http://trac.doctrine-project.org/browser/trunk/query-language.txt I've done a lot of optimizations to be able to not touch the default nesting input level, but doing that I added a lot of restrictions that now are my bottlenecks. With all these optimizations, it currently reaches ~70. I made a lot of tests and the queries usually reaches 103... some complex ones reached ~140 nested calls. I know PHP was not structured to build compilers, and also I know this property can be overrided (many users do not have access to it), but I think for this situation it worth a consideration. Also, it's not a simple change for only one user, since our code usage is very large. My suggestion is to increase to something like 180, available since PHP 5.3. I'd like to know your thoughts about this subject.
