The big reason for PCRE is the fact that other, rather important extensions such as filter depend on it. SPL is also used by other extensions, which could be a "need" reason. On 5-Jun-07, at 4:58 PM, Stanislav Malyshev wrote:
let's make ext/pcre and ext/spl first class core components and not allow to disable them.
Well, theoretically I can imagine reason why somebody would like to disable them - e.g., if I need super-high-performance server and I absolutely must squeeze out every last bit of cpu/memory usage _and_ I don't do neither SPL nor regular expressions - I might want to disable it. 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? --Stanislav Malyshev, Zend Products Engineer stas@zend.com http://www.zend.com/ --PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
