Dmitry, I've tried to implement this myself, and it seems to work fine, but I end up with some weird (unrelated?) test failures after:
https://github.com/php/php-src/compare/master...dshafik:too-few-args-exception Example test failure: ========DIFF======== 001+ Warning: file_get_contents(http://localhost:8964): failed to open stream: Connection refused in /Users/dshafik/src/ php.net/php-src/tests/basic/bug67198.php on line 29 002+ bool(false) 001- string(4) "PASS" 002- string(4) "PASS" 003+ 004+ Warning: file_get_contents(http://localhost:8964): failed to open stream: Connection refused in /Users/dshafik/src/ php.net/php-src/tests/basic/bug67198.php on line 30 005+ bool(false) ========DONE======== FAIL php://input is empty when enable_post_data_reading=Off [tests/basic/bug67198.phpt] and: ========DIFF======== 001+ Warning: Declaration of melt\core\DateTime::createFromFormat($format, $time, ?melt\core\DateTimeZone $timezone = NULL) should be compatible with DateTime::createFromFormat($format, $time, $object = NULL) in /Users/dshafik/src/php.net/php-src/ext/date/tests/bug55407.php on line 7 ========DONE======== List of failed tests: ===================================================================== FAILED TEST SUMMARY --------------------------------------------------------------------- Test posix_getgrgid() function : basic functionality [ext/posix/tests/posix_getgrgid_basic.phpt] Test chdir() function : basic functionality [ext/standard/tests/dir/chdir_basic-win32-mb.phpt] Test chdir() function : usage variations - relative paths [ext/standard/tests/dir/chdir_variation2-win32-mb.phpt] Test getcwd() function : basic functionality [ext/standard/tests/dir/getcwd_basic-win32-mb.phpt] Test readdir() function : usage variations - sub-directories [ext/standard/tests/dir/readdir_variation3-win32-mb.phpt] Test readdir() function : usage variations - different file names [ext/standard/tests/dir/readdir_variation4-win32-mb.phpt] Test readdir() function : usage variations - operate on previously opened directory [ext/standard/tests/dir/readdir_variation6-win32-mb.phpt] Test rewinddir() function : basic functionality [ext/standard/tests/dir/rewinddir_basic-win32-mb.phpt] Test scandir() function : basic functionality [ext/standard/tests/dir/scandir_basic-win32-mb.phpt] Test scandir() function : usage variations - different sorting constants [ext/standard/tests/dir/scandir_variation10-win32-mb.phpt] Test scandir() function : usage variations - different relative paths [ext/standard/tests/dir/scandir_variation4-win32-mb.phpt] Test scandir() function : usage variations - different file names [ext/standard/tests/dir/scandir_variation8-win32-mb.phpt] Test scandir() function : usage variations - different ints as $sorting_order arg [ext/standard/tests/dir/scandir_variation9-win32-mb.phpt] file_get_contents() test using offset parameter out of range [ext/standard/tests/file/file_get_contents_error001.phpt] Test lstat() and stat() functions: usage variations - file opened using w and r mode [ext/standard/tests/file/lstat_stat_variation13.phpt] Check cli_process_title support on Unix [sapi/cli/tests/cli_process_title_unix.phpt] ===================================================================== I can't see how my change has affected this at all; but maybe I missed something? Could you review and see if you spot anything?
