Nothing wrong in using 0, but it would be much more elegant to stick to constants all from the same family. Someone already figured that out: $ php -r 'print_r(get_defined_constants());' | grep ' 0' | wc -l 89 Anyway, my opinion is I would like E_NONE in next major release, and I would also like E_ALL to be extended to include E_DEPRECATED and E_STRICT, instead of adding a really bogus E_DEVELOPMENT or E_EVERYTHING. Please also note that E_* indicates a single error channel, with the exception of E_ALL and possibly E_NONE if it gets added. I would avoid adding more E_* constants which don't represent a single channel. I would find it confusing. 2c -- Giovanni Giacobbi -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
