Offhand, I really can't think of many places where that even *happens* in MediaWiki... maybe when purging thumbnails? Now, if you *do* find yourself writing lots of new code that does a lot of directory iteration, then feel free to use whatever convenient mechanism is nice and doesn't have security or licensing problems or otherwise takes more effort than just using things built into PHP (there's at least 3 or for directory iterator systems already, including the opendir() stuff, the object-oriented variant in the Dir class, and the SPL iterators). Getting code done and working will be far, far more important than any list discussion about hypotheticals. -- brion _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list Wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
