Note that *this* warning is never supposed to occur in production, because it is a programming error to pass a wrong resource *type*. Rasing a warning for wrong resource types is standard behavior of zend_fetch_resource() (unless no resource type name is passed). I don't see why these new functions should use a non standard mechanism. Of course, in the long run resources should go away, which would resolve this issue for these functions as well. -- Christoph -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: https://www.php.net/unsub.php
