[PHP-DEV] Re: Optional parameter for debug_print_backtrace()

2004-03-18 Thread Andi Gutmans
What else does debug_print_backtrace() include? If the info is more maybe we should change debug_backtrace()? In any case, in general I don't have a problem to do this. Might be nicer if we could do it without output buffering though but I haven't looked at the code to see how hard that would be

[PHP-DEV] Optional parameter for debug_print_backtrace()

2004-03-18 Thread Andrey Hristov

Hi, a small licensing question. Is it only forbidden to have extensions in PECL that link to GPL or it's not possible at all to have PHP extensions (even not hosted in PECL) that link to GPL code , and there is no exception in the license of the code (like with mysql). Andrey -- PHP Internals -

Why would anyone need this? if __construct() contains php5-only syntax, it won't work anyway on php4. If it contains something that works in php4 - why do you need separate constructor? Anyway, since in no place besides constructor you can not do such tricks - why constructors should be the onl
