I totally agree. I do not care much about the value of failure or success but I am tired to have to read the code to see if it is 0, 1, or -1 on failure. The kind of uniformization I would like to see for the php internals APIs. About the argument for the lack of info in function signature: A simple typedef will solve it, for the good: status php_foo(); Or something along this line. Yes, it will mean yet another large set of changes for ext developers. But at this point, it may be a good time to do it. Cheers, Pierre
