As you are reassigning $ano_fnc, the old closure is being destructed. Had you used create_function(), it wouldn't happen. Now the question is, if it is correctly freeing the functions (and it is good that it does so), why is it not doing it when they have different lengths? -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
