Ive taken systems which I would have prefered to have done in PHP away from PHP (in that case I moved to Java for the stack tracing - because the code was used so much inside itself it was impossible to bug trace - especialy when the code was evaling heh). PHP is my forte and I would have prefered to do it with the language I know best and love. However - purely based on not having a backtrace I had to move. NOTE: At the time I was unaware of the existance of anything that could be plugged into PHP to do this... and this was 5 months ago. However, regardless of time frame - fact is that I moved because of the lack of a feature... one that is availiable to us, but were not putting in out of politics.

If there is a vote, Im +1 on the idea of a backtrace into the earliest PHP release possible. -- Dan Hardiker [[EMAIL PROTECTED]] ADAM Software & Systems Engineer First Creative Ltd -- PHP Development Mailing List <http://www.php.net/> To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
