(some TSRMLS_CC missing and TSRMLS_DC usage instead of TSRMLS_CC) Other thing I have noticed that you have not followed our coding standards about brackets and comments (we don't use the C++ style one). And about the comments looks as the patch isn't finished or you just forgot the remove them? http://dpaste.com/665851/plain/ -- Regards, Felipe Pena
