An ini setting is evil for this. People use serialized data as transport format having that depend on an ini setting is bad. suggestions: - The decode function could check the format ("old" format will always begin by one of aisfb or so followed by a colon, igbinary something else) - serialize() might get an extra parameter to set the format - lateron, if we want: if old format is being use a deprecation notice is shown when the older fomrat is being used) johannes -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
