I skip a) and b) for now as I mostly agree and first like to clarify...

... that I do not use this approach for global program config options. If this
was the intent of the original question I may have mistaken it entirely.
(I actually use constants for all on-site configurations and all are defined
in one file, there aren't so many and they can't be modified at runtime (I
think)).
My primary objective for using VOs was to have very strict and clear
definitions for data structures inside the program. Passing loosely defined
arrays from function to function caused too many bugs in my code. Now things
crash much earlier and I get to know problems quicker.
(besides: phpdoc creates nice crosslinks that tell precisely what some
method needs, no long parameter lists but thats also straying off).

bitwise right shift is probably the fastest cast to int so far ... still in
many languages, intval is a function call
being a cast in both cases (int) is good as well ... bitwise, casting, works
with strings, arrays, boolean, whatever as well.
I don't think there is any difference in php, except when the integer is "too
big" ... but this was not the case, we had to deal with 1 to 10 :-)

Hi, We are looking to upgrade php 5.2.1 to 5.2.8. Do we need to rebuild the
libphp5.so also to detect the new version of underlying php or will the same
old version of libphp5.so build for php 5.2.1, automatically detect a new
underlying php installation? thanks

Newbie question.
I need to download a very large amount of xml data from a site using CURL.
How to bypass (pipe) curl_exec return value directly to a file, without
using memory allocation?
set_time_limit(0);
$ch = curl_init($siteURL);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
$mixed = curl_exec($ch);
How to set/pipe $mixed as a (disk) file, so that data returned by curl_exec
is directly saved to the disk-file, and not involving memory allocation?
Thank you.
-PHP 5
-Windows XP

Use the CURLOPT_FILE option to set the output to write to the file
handle given by the option's value (which must be a writable file
handle). For instance:
$ch = curl_init($url);
$fp = fopen('/tmp/curl.out', 'w');
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FILE, $fp);
curl_exec($ch);
Error checking etc. is of course left up to you. :)
Good luck,
Torben

As before, please feel free to insult my code. ;-) Any and all feedback is
of course most appreciated.
I know you're more concerned with structure, but your checkInt()
method is arguably buggy/has an un-noted assumption. It accepts ints
formatted as ints and strings, but not floats:
*sigh* sometimes I really wish PHP allowed one to be a bit more
heavy-handed with types (optional real type hinting would be nice).
I guess I only ever worried about string (from DB) and int (internal
call) as in my specific use I would never be passing a float.
You make an excellent point however; I suppose in the interests of
completeness, forward compatibility etc. I should take into account more
possibilities. Perhaps I should just throw an exception in deposit()
etc. if the argument isn't int and worry about converting elsewhere.
Also thanks for the sample TestCase code! I've never really thought
about unit testing in PHP, despite doing so in Java etc. Reading about
PHPUnit brought me on to phpUnderControl - interesting stuff!
Best regards,
Eric
