This patch removes the so called local variables defined per
file basis for certain editors to properly show tab width, and
similar settings. These are mainly used by Vim and Emacs editors
yet with recent changes the once working definitions don't work
anymore in Vim without custom plugins or additional configuration.
Neither are these settings synced across the PHP code base.
A simpler and better approach is EditorConfig and fixing code
using some code style fixing tools in the future instead.
This patch also removes the so called modelines for Vim. Modelines
allow Vim editor specifically to set some editor configuration such as
syntax highlighting, indentation style and tab width to be set in the
first line or the last 5 lines per file basis. Since the php test
files have syntax highlighting already set in most editors properly and
EditorConfig takes care of the indentation settings, this patch removes
these as well for the Vim 6.0 and newer versions.
With the removal of local variables for certain editors such as
Emacs and Vim, the footer is also probably not needed anymore when
creating extensions using ext_skel.php script.
Additionally, Vim modelines for setting php syntax and some editor
settings has been removed from some *.phpt files. All these are
mostly not relevant for phpt files neither work properly in the
middle of the file.
The $Id$ keywords were used in Subversion where they can be substituted
with filename, last revision number change, last changed date, and last
user who changed it.
In Git this functionality is different and can be done with Git attribute
ident. These need to be defined manually for each file in the
.gitattributes file and are afterwards replaced with 40-character
hexadecimal blob object name which is based only on the particular file
contents.
This patch simplifies handling of $Id$ keywords by removing them since
they are not used anymore.
I've introduced a new CompileError type, from which ParseError
inherits. These errors are not parse errors in the narrow sense
of the term, even though they happen to be generated during
parsing in our implementation. Additionally reusing the ParseError
class for this purpose would change existing error messages (if
the exception is not caught) from a "Fatal error:" to a "Parse
error:" prefix, and also the error kind from E_COMPILE_ERROR to
E_PARSE.
It's annoying that in Zend you have to use zend_strpprintf instead
of strpprintf, while in PHP you have to use strpprintf instead of
zend_strpprintf.
Make zend_s(tr)pprintf always available and keep s(tr)pprintf as
macro aliases.
Added Throwable interface that exceptions must
implement in order to be thrown. BaseException
was removed, EngineException renamed to
Error, and TypeException and ParseException
renamed to TypeError and ParseError. Exception
and Error no longer extend a common base
class, rather they both implement the Throwable
interface.
[DOC]
- Exceptions can be thrown while exceptions are pending, they are linked
- Exceptions can be handled in __destruct
- Add optional Exception $previous parameter to
. Exception::__construct
. ErrorException::__construct
