Doc #69424 [NEW]: Deep recursion should be documented more prominently

From: cmb Operating system: * PHP version: Irrelevant Package: Scripting Engine problem Bug Type: Documentation Problem Bug description:Deep recursion should be documented more prominently Description: ------------ --- From manual page: http://www.php.net/functions.user-defined --- Apparently, many users don't expect PHP to crash on infinite recursion[1]. Therefore I suggest to document this issue more clearly, at least. [1] 3 reproducible crashes due to infinite recursion have been reported during the last 10 days: bug #69346, bug #69397, bug #69423. There seem to be a lot of older reports. -- Edit bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=69424&edit=1 -- Try a snapshot (PHP 5.4): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=69424&r=trysnapshot54 Try a snapshot (PHP 5.5): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=69424&r=trysnapshot55 Try a snapshot (trunk): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=69424&r=trysnapshottrunk Fixed in SVN: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=69424&r=fixed Fixed in release: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=69424&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=69424&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=69424&r=needscript Try newer version: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=69424&r=oldversion Not developer issue: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=69424&r=support Expected behavior: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=69424&r=notwrong Not enough info: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=69424&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=69424&r=submittedtwice register_globals: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=69424&r=globals PHP 4 support discontinued: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=69424&r=php4 Daylight Savings: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=69424&r=dst IIS Stability: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=69424&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=69424&r=gnused Floating point limitations: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=69424&r=float No Zend Extensions: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=69424&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=69424&r=mysqlcfg
