And convert some object to string conversion related recoverable
fatal errors into Error exceptions.
Improve exception safety of internal code performing string
conversions.
The test directory is often used for temporary files, let's use
the source directory, which should be more stable. If that doesn't
work we need to create a temporary directory.
Normalization include:
- Use dnl for everything that can be ommitted when configure is built in
favor of the shell comment character # which is visible in the output.
- Line length normalized to 80 columns
- Dots for most of the one line sentences
- Macro definitions include similar pattern header comments now
This patch simplifies line endings tracked in the Git repository and
syncs them to all include the LF style instead of the CRLF files.
Newline characters:
- LF (\n) (*nix and Mac)
- CRLF (\r\n) (Windows)
- CR (\r) (old Mac, obsolete)
To see which line endings are in the index and in the working copy the
following command can be used:
`git ls-files --eol`
Git additionally provides `.gitattributes` file to specify if some files
need to have specific line endings on all platforms (either CRLF or LF).
Changed files shouldn't cause issues on modern Windows platforms because
also Git can do output conversion is core.autocrlf=true is set on
Windows and use CRLF newlines in all files in the working tree.
Unless CRLF files are tracked specifically, Git by default tracks all
files in the index using LF newlines.
When a HT iterator is one past the end and we rehash, we need to make
sure that it is move to the new one past the end position, to make
sure that newly inserted elements are picked up.
In the hash position APIs, make sure we always advance to the next
non-undef element and not just when the position is 0 (similar to
what foreach does). This can happen when the position of an
ArrayIterator is one past its current end and a new element is
inserted not directly at that position because the array is packed.
There is still a bug here (as shown in the tests), but this is a
separate issue that also affects plain array iteration in foreach.
If tests are run in parallel, files may be created and deleted in
the directory. Create a separate directory just for this test to
avoid this dependence.
This patch removes the so called local variables defined per
file basis for certain editors to properly show tab width, and
similar settings. These are mainly used by Vim and Emacs editors
yet with recent changes the once working definitions don't work
anymore in Vim without custom plugins or additional configuration.
Neither are these settings synced across the PHP code base.
A simpler and better approach is EditorConfig and fixing code
using some code style fixing tools in the future instead.
This patch also removes the so called modelines for Vim. Modelines
allow Vim editor specifically to set some editor configuration such as
syntax highlighting, indentation style and tab width to be set in the
first line or the last 5 lines per file basis. Since the php test
files have syntax highlighting already set in most editors properly and
EditorConfig takes care of the indentation settings, this patch removes
these as well for the Vim 6.0 and newer versions.
With the removal of local variables for certain editors such as
Emacs and Vim, the footer is also probably not needed anymore when
creating extensions using ext_skel.php script.
Additionally, Vim modelines for setting php syntax and some editor
settings has been removed from some *.phpt files. All these are
mostly not relevant for phpt files neither work properly in the
middle of the file.
