I was wondering if that might cause problems if you have a large codebase and some unfixed errors in a few places. If the code isn’t being run, only compiled, then it’d be unnecessary pain. However, the chances of a codebase having numerous undetected divisions by zero, that are obvious at compile-time, aren’t very high. So, failing at compile-time is fine. And, to save another email, I agree with the four items in your summary. Exceptions for negative shift, modulo/intdiv by zero, normal division by zero is +/-INF. :) -- Andrea Faulds http://ajf.me/ -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
