has anyone figure it out if it was rejected or just forgotten ?
and if it was rejected, what was the reason ?
the only valid reason I seen so far was that you can do this using
something else (perl, or an apache module, or even something more
exotic). but, this also apply to php itself ... I can write dinamic web
pages using something else too ... like perl, jsp, etc. are you trying
to give me a reason NOT TO USE PHP ?!?
the patch I am proposing will only provide a hook mechanism in the
upload processing function. nothing more. it only adds few lines to
rfc1867.c alowing for a loadable module to hook into.
and if someone thinks the patch is TOO BIG, i'm sure we can make it even
smaller and less intrusive.
I think that the automatic processing of uploads with no way of
disabling it (and it manually) is a shortcoming of PHP in the first
place. the fact that there is no configuration, no option to enable or
disable it is a negative point of the design.
I cant see any disadvantage of having that hook in place, and so far
nobody gave me any good reason not to have it.
and please, at least take a look over the patch before rejecting it ?
and give me a valid reason for doing so.
thank you for your time,
Doru Petrescu
