http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?edit=1&id=11008 http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?edit=1&id=14574 exit() function is broken. Fixing the broken behaviour is the only real solution, IMO. One solution: - When passed argument is string: print out this string - When passed argument is integer: Don't print it, use it as exit-status This is what is the expected behaviour is and I really can't think of any good examples where this would fail. Nobody ever gave any. And to get the REAL users (not only Zeev's opinion) I'm sending this also to php-general. >From manual: "The exit() function terminates execution of the script. It prints status just before exiting. If status is an integer, that value will be used as exit-status." This can be understood in many ways. If the status is integer, it is used as exit-status..but it's not clear that it's ALSO printed out which is simply buggy behaviour. Now, if general concencus amongs the users of PHP is that it should also print out the exit-status when it's an integer then 'shell_exit()' function should be added. --Jani -- PHP Development Mailing List <http://www.php.net/> To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
