Flamewar Summary Conclusion

I'd like to thank everyone for voting on the topic and making their
opinions known. The conclusion is that:

E_STRICT will not be a part of E_ALL, however E_RECOVERABLE_ERROR
will be, this means no "new" errors will appear for current user, as
E_RECOVERABLE_ERROR is similar to what E_ERROR was in earlier
releases. So the only affect is that value numeric value of E_ALL is
greater then it was before. Marcus has already applied patch to this
affect a few days ago (Thanks!).

On the topic of "dynamic statics" the conclusion is that we do not
want this in PHP 5.2 and people who need equivalent functionally can
use class static vars that are arrays.

This needs to be made obvious in the release notes or something. Users
that set their error level in apache will use a numeric value and not
the constants. That is the only way to change the value for an entire
virthost.

I'll add a note about it to the 5.2 README file.

Back to my original (off-list) question - what happens if people don't have
E_RECOVERABLE_ERROR level error reporting switched on? Does it fall back to
E_ERROR or does the code fail silently?

I'll add a note about it to the 5.2 README file.

When E_RECOVERABLE_ERROR is triggers and not handled, it gets
translated to an E_ERROR "Catchable fatal error...".

Cool. I just had a horrible vision of hundreds of reports of 'strange
crashes' :)

Is there an "UPGRADING 5.1 to 5.2"? I think there it would make sense, too.

Hello Markus,

the question alone makes me question if it was worth the effort starting
it :-)

best regards
