I really dont know, if this is the right board for this... but i think, i
have to write it down.

Please throw an error, if file_get_contents cant read a file because
memory_limit overflow!

I´ve programmed a tool parsing checksums from large files. Because i have to
manage header-offsets, i have to read the files using file_get_contents.
(This should be the fastest way for this task says the manual... right!)

The problem is, that if the memory_limit in the php.ini is set to 64MB, and
the file read in by file_get_contents is bigger than 64MB, file_get_contents
crashes without an EXCETPION. This crash cant be catched!

I want handle this this way:

try{
    $data = file_get_contents($file);
}
catch (MemoryLimitReachedException $e){
    // try the same using a while loop reading the data! (This works!)
}

Hope, there is a solution for this.

Thank you.
