Hi List, The 'Constructor behaviour of internal classes' RFC is now in voting. Please note, it's the coding standard that is being voted on. If anyone thinks I've implemented the changes in a way that is less awesome then there is no reason the changes couldn't be improved.
Additionally, while writing the change I noticed some things that were already present in the code, that are outside the scope of the RFC but ought to be fixed for the release of PHP 7. * Multiple examples of a generic Exception being thrown rather than a specific exception being thrown. * Code generating an error notice and throwing an exception. It should be one or the other, not both. * The text of exceptions in Intl not always being as informative as the error message, which could be improved. But as I said, the vote is on whether the standard behaviour of either returning a working instance or throwing an exception, is the standard behaviour we want in PHP. cheers Dan Ack -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
