In any case, I see the reasons why we *want* it enabled. But I'd like to hear any reasons why we *need* it enabled - i.e. any vital stuff that can't work with SPL/PCRE disabled?
I just listed two: - the array bugs in object properties. There is no other work around but to use ArrayObject. And this is rather critical. - The other functions I listed in my reply are also clearly ZE2 tasks (they all implement what is missing now in the engine). I can imagine a reason why one does not need PCRE. However it is already enable by default and is part of each distro default package as far I remember. --Pierre
