Re: Re: Bug #17022: enhance socket_strerror(errno) to make errno optional

I think the requested behavior does not belong in socket_strerror() simply because it would not match the primary and other use of socket_last_error(). In other words, you would not be able to replace the behavior of socket_strerror(socket_last_error($sock)); What could be possible, would be to add something like socket_last_errstr, which could then follow the same semantics of socket_last_error. This would be a much more consistent. i.e. socket_last_errstr($sock); socket_last_errstr(); Would this be acceptable? -Jason On Sun, 2002-05-05 at 16:33, Markus Fischer wrote: > Hi, > > technically this isn't a problem at all.
