Before I go to bed :) I think probably an acceptable solution is to have another function like get_local_vars_and_values() (we can think of a cooler name) which gives you a copy of the local symbol table which you could then pass on to a function.

ermh, some time ago there was a patch which should introduce $CURRENT, why was it rejected?

Because it's slow and usually quite useless.

As Zeev says it needs to be R/O and there might be issues with it still (references and so on). I don't like it too much but if there's a decent patch which makes sense it should be OK. I'm not sure it's that easy to do in a decent fashion. Are you sure it's needed? :)

I got into Andrei's situation about half a year ago :) I could have needed this sort of function too, well... 2c

Anybody collecting these cents? I think that sooner or later we'll have a few 2c millionaires in here :) -- Zeev Suraski <zeev@zend.com> CTO, Zend Technologies Ltd. http://www.zend.com/
