note 108604 added to language.oop5.traits

Using AS on a __construct method (and maybe other magic methods) is really, really bad. The problem is that is doesn't throw any errors, at least in 5.4.0. It just sporadically resets the connection. And when I say "sporadically," I mean that arbitrary changes in the preceding code can cause the browser connection to reset or not reset *consistently*, so that subsequent page refreshes will continue to hang, crash, or display perfectly in the same fashion as the first load of the page after a change in the preceding code, but the slightest change in the code can change this state. (I believe it is related to precise memory usage.) I've spent a good part of the day chasing down this one, and weeping every time commenting or even moving a completely arbitrary section of code would cause the connection to reset. It was just by luck that I decided to comment the "__construct as primitiveObjectConstruct" line and then the crashes went away entirely. My parent trait constructor was very simple, so my fix this time was to copy the functionality into the child __construct. I'm not sure how I'll approach a more complicated parent trait constructor. ---- Server IP: 192.41.42.26 Probable Submitter: 98.250.172.237 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/language.oop5.traits.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/108604 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/108604/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/108604/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/108604/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/108604/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/108604/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/108604/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/108604 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/108604 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
