I'll fix this soon. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2015-08-08 22:15:45] ab@php.net Yasuo, ping. Probably still should be fixed till RC1. Thanks. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2015-07-21 09:47:49] ab@php.net Hi Yasuo, what is the status of this? Obviously too late for beta2 ( Thanks. Anatol ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2015-07-13 16:09:39] kalle@php.net Yasuo, Me and Anatol, talked it over and we both believe that the old behavior should be restored as to how it was in PHP5. It creates a less WTF factor when upgrading too, even though the new behavior is makes more sense. So please go ahead and commit a fix to revert the behavior back before Beta 2 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2015-07-13 02:21:26] yohgaki@php.net So what should I do? Restore old behavior or not? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2015-07-11 20:44:59] ab@php.net Hi, I guess we should revert the change to PHP5 behavior. Please do a proof read of https://wiki.php.net/rfc/session-lock-ini http://grokbase.com/t/php/php-internals/142dbaan9h/vote-rfc-introduce-session-start-options-read-only-unsafe-lock-lazy-write-and-lazy-destroy and also bug #65746. This behavior change is a subset of the mentioned RFC which had major concerns and was declined. Until a proper solution is suggested and accepted, there is no reason to go for BC breaks. Thanks. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
