Secondly, register_shutdown_function() takes a string argument, which is the name of the function (not class method) which is to be executed on shutdown. At the moment, you're calling it with whatever the return value of '$this->destroyObject()' is, which is nothing. In any case, if you put error_reporting(E_ALL) near the beginning of the file, you should get an 'undefined property' error on the line that calls register_shutdown_function(), since $this->destroyObject is not a class method or property ($this->destroyObject() is). Replacing $this->destroyObject with $this->destroyObject() on that line results in the warning you noted, since you've registered a null function to execute on shutdown. Don't know why it would have appeared to work for you--it doesn't work for me (either way) on 4.0.7-dev. I am afraid I don't have time to rewrite this correctly, but again, asking on the php general discussion list should get you some more helpful help. :) Cheers, Torben -- Torben Wilson <torben@php.net> http://www.thebuttlesschaps.com +1.604.709.0506
