I find it hard to justify such function, but nothing stops you to propose a patch to PHP developers and see if they find acceptable. -- Regards, Manuel Lemos PHP Classes - Free ready to use OOP components written in PHP http://www.phpclasses.org/ PHP Reviews - Reviews of PHP books and other products http://www.phpclasses.org/reviews/ Metastorage - Data object relational mapping layer generator http://www.meta-language.net/metastorage.htmlI think that making all failed memory allocations recoverable is not viable because more PHP C code that makes memory allocations assumes it only returns if it succeeds. Trying to change that everywhere memory is allocated is and monster job that I doubt that any PHP core developer will agree on doing.You could just create a new function for that: alloc_no_exception There's no need to change every call, you'd only need to change the calls that can take a NULL result.
