Two main topics come to mind here:
- Layout of constant information
As far as I see it, they're all ready for descriptions but are rarely
added as it means a lot of extra work looking them all up, and putting
that information into laymen's terms (or coming up with a description
that isn't simply the constant name written out). If these constant lists should be in a table, or the current variablelist, I don't know. The
mysqli table uses a two column table, the ref.info table three, and the
errorfunc table has four; and most all other extensions use a variablelist
with an empty description simpara with the idea of later adding the
description. Either layout works for me, they each have their pros and
cons.
If we start adding descriptions for constants, a table might easily get out of control, having constant names with a lot of useless vertical space in cells, while the corresponding description stretches the table cell. Or is this already solved? :) [I am reading through old but kept issues.]
