spl_object_hash?
Guys, excuse my being a little offtopic here, but why not introduce
standard "get_object_id" function in PHP6 which c
SPL is "in the core" AFAIAC.
I really want to hope it will be in PHP6. Still IMHO get_object_id
sounds much better than spl_object_hash and it will be much easier(and
more logical) to locate this function in "Class/Object Functions"
section of documentation than in SPL...

Again see mail archive for why. That said the name appears to be
the best option already.
Oh, yes, you're right spl_object_hash does its job and does it very
well, there's really no point rename it(or make an alias) into
object_get_id. I should have stated more clear what I think
object_get_id c
The problem is that there is no such unique id in the current engine.
Am I right in my guess that there's only a counter for each object
type? Still being not really unique this information could be very
useful and enough in many situations.

Guys thank you all very much for this detailed explanation!
spl_object_hash is unique in the
terms of object identity.
I really don't want to be annoying but from the end user's POV
spl_object_hash sounds like a function which returns a hash but not an
identity. Any tiny chance it will be ava
Hmm. I think what Pavel is asking is just to make it clearer in the
documentation what spl_object_hash's purpose and workings are, and perhaps
make an alias to it named object_get_id so other people don't run into this
confusion in the future.
The name of spl_object_hash and the fact it is in the
Not quite. It creates a hash of an object, so two objects with the
same data yield the same hashes:
var_dump(spl_object_hash(new stdClass()), spl_object_hash(new stdClass
()));
Folks, is this really wanted behavior? Because if so, why does the
following result in the same hash as well(PHP-5.2.1
The first is cleared before the second is instantiated.
Oh, that clears everything, please ignore my previous post. Still,
don't you think this is a bit misleading? IMHO, new object should
always have the unique id(or hash in terms of spl)...

Hi folks,
Could you please recommend the fastest way to save/restore a state of
a PHP application?
Looks like the igbinary extension is a possible way to go. Are there
any faster, possibly even more low level ways? For example, in C/C++
it's possible to save/restore POD structs as binary data ver
