Hi Dan, Because the guide is in the manual. The manual is the difinitive source on how to use PHP. The guide was only added directly into the manual quite recently. This is exactly what I'm trying to say; its purpose has shifted since it became part of the manual and it's lost whatever

BUT perhaps some of the more complex explanations should have their own document. If it 'requires more explanation than we want to provide in the documentation' that does seem to suggest that a development perhaps DOES need better doumentation? In the manual, really. But - quite. - Steph

[PHP-DEV] Bug #46701

2009-02-12 Thread Moriyoshi Koizumi
Hey, I guess the patch relies on the 5.3's DVAL_TO_LVAL behavior that was changed by the fix for bug #42868, right? If so, this patch shouldn't be MFH'ed as the #42868 patch was not merged although I didn't remember any discussion on this. See also:

Hi Steph: It's nothing to do with structure. Everything makes for a very long file, full stop. It doesn't matter that the XML file is long. Each section is broken up into a separate page in the manual. You want the upgrade guide to contain just the things that will cause difficulties

Hi all, A while back I published a patch for PHP 5.2 and SNMP. Anyone had time to review it and if so, any comments? Could this patch be considered as a PHP 5.3 TODO item? Anything I need to do to accept the patch? Thanks. -- Best Regards, Leon -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime

See the results of the following on 5.2.6, 5.2.9rc2 and 5.3: php -r '$a[1e100] = 1; var_dump($a);' 5.2.6: array(1) { [-2147483648]= int(1) } 5.2.9rc2: array(1) { [-1]= int(1) } 5.3: array(1) { [2147483647]= int(1) } I doubt the result of 5.2.9rc2 is quite what we expect, and

Hi! it should actually be a hard error. As we always claim PHP follows pure IS-A relation ships. I feel very uneasy with hard errors on something that is not indeed an error preventing engine from continuing. I.e. my (personal) opinion is that if the engine can move forward, even with
