hi Will, You should add it now, while 5.4 final is not released yet, this feature exists already and should be part of the RFC, to be complete. Cheers, On Wed, Dec 21, 2011 at 6:22 PM, Will Fitch wrote: > Hi Nikita, > > I didn't add that as it's not yet in production.  As soon as things are >

Re: [PHP-DEV] Return Type Hinting for Methods RFC

Hi Nikita, I didn't add that as it's not yet in production. As soon as things are finalized and 5.4 is GA, I will gladly add the callable type hint. The change wouldn't be different from parameter type hinting, and can easily be added. On Dec 21, 2011, at 12:17 PM, Nikita Popov wrote: > Hi W

Re: [PHP-DEV] Return Type Hinting for Methods RFC

Hi Will! One random thought I had while reading the RFC is: What about the newly introduced callable typehint? Is this missing by intention? I could well imagine so (because it's hard to check what scope callability should be checked on), but wanted to be sure on that. Nikita On Wed, Dec 21, 201

Re: [PHP-DEV] CS random values

Tom, First off, very detailed post! However, there are a few things I'd disagree with. 1. Salts for crypt() purposes need to be cryptographically secure random numbers. This is not true. The only requirement is that a salt be reasonably unique (meaning that the chance of using the same one is

[PHP-DEV] CS random values

Hi, I'm new to this list so please tolerate my unfamiliarity with protocol. PHP does not in general allow access to the underlying system¹s entropy source. I think it would be a good idea if it did. It is routine for web developers to write code in PHP that stores passwords in database tables or

Re: [PHP-DEV] Fixing string offsets of strings.

The fix for the warning is to use 0, rather than -1 as the last argument for is_numeric_string(), only in the zend_vm - isset code - it's a usefull warning when not used with isset. I'm just testing a patch and the related tests and will upload it to the bug soon. Regards Alan On Monday, De
