And convert some object to string conversion related recoverable
fatal errors into Error exceptions.
Improve exception safety of internal code performing string
conversions.
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.
Prohibit direct update of GC_REFCOUNT(), GC_SET_REFCOUNT(), GC_ADDREF() and GC_DELREF() shoukf be instead.
Added mactros to validate reference-counting (disabled for now).
These macros are going to be used to eliminate race-condintions during reference-counting on data shared between threads.
When we decrement the refcount of a node's document, we state that we
won't need it anymore. Therefore we can *always* set the pointer to the
document to NULL, what avoids invalid memory accesses for some edge cases
as demonstrated with the PHPT.
Original patch provided by Sean Heelan.
The particular need on this is because of the current situation
with determining the background functionality for the
gettimeofday. DllMain allows to initialize stuff before the DLL
can be actually used. Thus, we use different time API on win7
and win8 and later, so the function pointer needs to be
initialized before anything in the DLL could even demand it.
The change also opens the door for the further optimizations,
as now we're able to do the very basic initializations for the
whole DLL before it could ever start to live. Fe on this way the
TLS initialization could be done, when utilizing the
DLL_THREAD_ATTACH/DETACH case. Whether it's really usable in
portable way should be synced with other platforms.
Be aware that it's dangerous as it possibly causes dead locks.
So to use with care. One willing to add items to DllMain should
better read the documentation twice and even then try to defer
the necessary action.
Depending on circumstances, usage of xmlCleanupParser can affect
the thread local storage, or even cause crashes in single threaded
programs. On shutdown the memory will be freed anyway, however
not using xmlCleanupParser helps to avoid possible shutdown
crashes.
The availability of entity loading is stored in a module global which
previously was only initialized in the GINIT constructor. This had the
effect that disabling the entity loader in one request caused
subsequent requests hitting the same Apache child process to also have
the loader disabled.
With this change the loader is explicitely enabled in the request init
phase.
