Yes, indeed. That was a typo. The original point still stands though. And IMO, this should be fixed in the Windows port so that on 64 bit processors, the PHP "int" type (the C "long" type) is actually 64 bits, just like almost any other current operating system/compiler set-up. cheers, Derick -- http://derickrethans.nl | http://xdebug.org Like Xdebug?
