It was in response to the following report, http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=30578 The problem being other than the fact that it's broken some BC is that when it comes around to using the shutdown function any objects you might actually have wished to use have since had their destructor called closing connections and finalising data. All I am proposing is that the shutdown function is run prior to destruct functions being called as I don't expect to still be able to access objects after the destructor is called which is still the case. Changing the order doesn't effect bug 30578 which it was fixing. The attached code demonstrates the problem, I'd expect to get the following output __construct execution execution __destruct the shutdown function checking the last step run, unfortunately I get __construct execution __destruct __destruct Even though the destructor has been called I can still access the object and fetch the value of the step variable.
