Hi,
I have just sent this PR: https://github.com/php/php-src/pull/397
It's reaction to the comment from nikic in PR:
https://github.com/php/php-src/pull/393
The patch is about adding new object handler that is used when object is
serialized. Currently this needs to be done using get_properties which is
sometimes a bit over kill.
It's useful in situation if you only need to change properties for
serialization. It's very similar to get_debug_info that is used only in
specific situations (print_r...)
Currently I call it get_serialize_info . It was the first name that came to
my mind. :) I am happy to change if someone has a better idea?
Any thoughts?
Jakub
