Hi internals, > I've created a new RFC https://wiki.php.net/rfc/debug_backtrace_depth to > return the depth of the current stack trace. > > Inspecting the current stack trace depth is occasionally useful for > 1.

I plan to start voting on https://wiki.php.net/rfc/debug_backtrace_depth tomorrow. Thanks, Tyson -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: https://www.php.net/unsub.php
