IOW, zend_parse_parameters has already done a good job of parsing and figuring out what went wrong for what reason. i'd like to be able to use the error message generated by z_p_p rather than having to figure things out myself. id also like to suppress its generation of an error, since it would be redundant in the face of the exception. i've actually considered creating a parallel zend_parse_parameters which has the required semantics. i'd like to hear other people's takes first, though. l0t3k
