We already have this right now, and realistically speaking, who wouldn't do that in their code instead of writing weird \strlen() code? Everybody would configure their IDEs and so to insert this automatically. So we're talking about RFC to make people work harder for what they already have now and then end up in the same place we are already right now. > was acted on at any time in the future. and in addition people will silence > the notices on global error reporting level, because violations would And note also that we can't silence just this warning. Which means people would have to silence *all* warnings, thus making all other messages useless. This is not a good development and this is not what we should be training users to do - saying "well, it's a warning, just silence it" is the worth idea we could have. If we create a warning, recommendation should be "it's important enough so we call your attention to it, please deal with it", not "just silence it". If it's OK in most cases (as opposed to rare exceptional cases) for it to be silenced, it shouldn't be there in the first place. -- Stas Malyshev smalys...@gmail.com -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
