Wait, is the default going to be "Unicode" (wide, always 2 bytes per char, I.E. more memory consumption) or "UTF-8" (1 byte for the first 127, more bytes for wider text, mostly unchanged memory consumption)? I thought it was originally a conversion to Unicode, but that was scrapped? Can someone clarify?

I would have happily seen it in 5.4 but as this release is late right now we have to wait ;) Bye Simon p.s. * http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.error-reporting.php#refsect1-function.error-reporting-changelog *<http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.error-reporting.php#refsect1-function.error-reporting-changelog> 2012/2/27 Richard Lynch <c...@l-i-e.com> > On Sun, February 26, 2012 2:03 am, Stas Malyshev wrote: > > Just discovered that our stock "php 4 support discontinued" message > > in bugs looks like: > > > > We are sorry, but we can not support PHP 4 related problems anymore. > > Momentum is gathering for PHP 6, and we think supporting PHP 4 will > > lead to a waste of resources which we want to put into getting PHP 6 > > ready. > > > > Unless I've missed something, the "momentum for php 6" is very much > > nonexistent, so we probably want to fix that message :) > > Isn't the emotional scarring of PHP 6 == Unicode far enough in the > past to start some momentum for PHP 6? > > I sure core Devs have thought about this, and have gone so far as to > make statements for what should be in PHP 6... > > PS > If it isn't already, I want to write an RFC to change the default > error_reporting to include E_NOTICE. > > -- > brain cancer update: > http://richardlynch.blogspot.com/search/label/brain%20tumor > Donate: > > https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_s-xclick&hosted_button_id=F > S9NLTNEEKWBE > > > > -- > PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, > visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php > >
