AG>>Problem is that some extensions that don't "support" Unicode will AG>>still work. Extensions like gd might "almost" work out of the box. We can go over "standard" extensions and rubber-stamp ones that we think do not need changes. As for PECL/external extensions, I think maintainers should do that. Once we have easy (and adding _UNICODE in one place is quite easy) and properly documented procedure of "unicode-enabling" an extension, I don't think this should be a problem. We can also add an error message referring to the docs once loading non-unicode-enabled extension is attempted to load in unicode mode. -- Stanislav Malyshev, Zend Products Engineer stas@zend.com http://www.zend.com/ +972-3-6139665 ext.115
