Subject: Accept null type hint in C
From: me@bobsilva.com ("Bob Silva")

Hi,

Since NULL typehints are allowed in userland, how would I go about it in C?

I have ZEND_ARG_OBJ_INFO(0, obj, ZObject, 1) which has allow null set on.

Then in the method:

if (zend_parse_parameters(ZEND_NUM_ARGS() TSRMLS_CC, "O", &objA,
pow_ce_ZObject) == FAILURE) {


If I pass NULL, it fails on the grounds that it isn't a ZObject.

Also,

Could someone explain the purpose of the zend_parse_method_parameters
function as opposed to using the zend_parse_parameters?

Thanks

Bob Silva
