Subject: [PATCH] #52563: Adding E_NONE and/or E_EVERYTHING constants
From: aharvey@php.net (Adam Harvey)

Folks,

http://bugs.php.net/52563 suggests adding an E_NONE constant (set to 0) to
go with the various other E_* constants we have. I've hacked up a quick
patch against trunk (attached to the report) that would add that, but don't
have Zend karma to add it, so I'll open it up to the floor: (a) should we
have it, and (b) if so, can someone please commit it?

Johannes has pointed out on IRC that E_NONE does already exist in some
projects, so that's an argument against it.

Kalle also suggested another constant within that request to provide a
symbolic version of error_reporting = -1, so there's a second patch in that
report to add an E_EVERYTHING constant which acts as E_ALL once did: it
turns on all error reporting.

I'm not terribly attached to either the names or, indeed, the request in
general, but it'd be nice to get this one closed one way or t'other.

Adam
