If that is the goal, then I would agree with this RFC. However, changing the PERL string increment feature does not IMO fit into that goal, and it also a useful *feature*. On that base I would vote against this. And I suspect many others would as well. Is there a way to avoid this single useful feature from being deprecated, while to good parts of this RFC stay? I am also unsure as how much actual breakage this would cause, and before this gets up to a vote, I would like to see how bad (or not) this would affect already existing code bases. cheers, Derick -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: https://www.php.net/unsub.php
