Re: Why is mktime(0,0,0,0,0,0) E_STRICT?

Unilateral break? lol... Actually it is no break at all, take PHP4 code move it to PHP and you won't even see the warning because E_STRICT is not even shown by default. On 23-Oct-06, at 11:26 AM, Pierre wrote:

I see no reason to make mktime() an alias of time(), you are basically advocating misuse of functions. Yes there are over 2,000 results on google showing people calling mktime(), but I bet there are even more register_globals users and yet we've all decided to remove it in PHP6.

Ilia, it is not about making an alias. It is about restoring a widely use behavior in mktime and about making gmktime useable. This change is nothing but a unilateral break (even in E_STRICT). --PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
