Hi. I've been testing a bunch of third-party PHP apps lately. A lot of them change the error_reporting level in userspace. This drives me crazy. Almost as crazy as @function(). Luckily Scream has fixed the @ problem, but the error_reporting problem continued to plague my testing. Often, these apps will change the error_reporting in their initialization code, which is often before sending headers. I tried using disabled_functions for error_reporting, but this causes its own warnings. This causes output before headers, and its own set of problems. This also leaves the ini_set() hole open. I wrote an extension that overrides error_reporting() and ini_set('error_reporting', ...). Attempted changes to the reporting level are logged, but are otherwise silent, to be as transparent as possible to the code (which is why I couldn't, for example, change error_reporting to PHP_INI_SYSTEM). Here's the code: http://caedmon.net/shackle-0.1.1.tgz If there are no objections, I'll push it into SVN and make a PECL package. If there are objections, please speak up. Gwynne has graciously indicated the main problems in my original code, so hopefully there are no remaining glaring errors. Thanks. S
