Hi Lukas, Johannes
Please could I ask for a PHP5.3 release manager's point of view on this?
I raised this ext/imap bug yesterday
http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=46902 after a discussion with Ilia
because I noticed that all of the function return values which result
from a failure of parameter parsing had changed from 'false' in PHP5.2
to NULL in PHP5.3.
So, questions:
1) Is the accepted practice that functions will return NULL when
zend_parse_parameters() fails in PHP5.3?
2) Is it acceptable to change the behaviour of functions between 5.2 and
5.3?
3) Does this apply to *all* PHP functions?
4) Assuming that the answer (3) is no, is there any documentation about
which functions have changed? (If not would you like some?)
