From: bigmrpoo at yahoo dot com Operating system: WinXP PHP version: Irrelevant PHP Bug Type: Documentation problem Bug description: imagecopyresized's return value not documented
Description: ------------ The documentation page for imagecopyresized does not describe the return value other than stating it is a boolean value. If this is an indicator of success or failure of the operation, then clients of this function must be programmed to behave correctly in case of failure. To do this, we must also know what situations will cause it to fail, and what side effects (if it is not atomic) occur if the operation fails. I tried to point out the clients of this function need to be aware of these issues in the comments for that page, but one of the editors decided to take my points as a question, not as raising a "gotcha" for the users of the function... So now im posting it here.
