If this is implemented (I think Andi may have some thoughts about this), then why not: zend_parse_parameters_hash(HASH_OF(my_zval), "{s:firstname}|{s:lastname}{l:age}", &firstname, &firstname_len, &lastname, &lastname_len, &age); -Andrei Some people try to achieve immortality through their work, others through their children.
