including:
- Whether or not to pass by ref (replaces the old arg_types, with arg_info)
- Argument name (for future use, maybe introspection)
- Class/Interface name (for type hints)
- If a class/interface name is available, whether to allow a null instance
Both user and builtin functions share the same data structures.
To declare a builtin function that expects its first arg to be an instance
of class 'Person', its second argument as a regular arg, and its third by
reference, use:
ZEND_BEGIN_ARG_INFO(my_func_arg_info, 0)
ZEND_ARG_OBJ_INFO(0, someone, Person, 1)
ZEND_ARG_PASS_INFO(0)
ZEND_ARG_PASS_INFO(1)
ZEND_END_ARG_INFO();
and use my_func_arg_info as the arg_info parameter to the ZEND_FE() family
of macros.
The first arg to each ZEND_ARG_*() macro is whether or not to pass by ref.
The boolean arg to ZEND_BEGIN_ARG_INFO() tells the engine whether to treat
the arguments for which there's no explicit information as pass by reference
or not.
The boolean argument to ZEND_ARG_OBJ_INFO() (4th arg) is whether or not to allownull values.
behavior/API is as follows:
1) To close a persistent use php_stream_pclose(), it will close the stream
and remove it from the persistent list.
2) Inside PHP code only explicit fclose() will close persistent streams,
all other actions such as unset() or assigning a value to stream handle
will not.
3) Regular streams can still be closed by either fclose(), unset() or an
assignment of a value to the stream handler.
Behavior for old libs/servers is "BEGIN;ROLLBACK;" in request shutdown.
For new libs a "RESET ALL;" is done in connect and "ROLLBACK;" is only done
where appropriate.
correctly and ends up as the default port. This seems to be caused by
some buffer overflow where the port number is assign zero, even though
it it is not assigned to the port variable.
