Hi internals!
The discussions around the patch for improved 64bit support have
deteriorated from a semi-reasonable discussions to pointless accusations
and name-calling. I'd like to get back to discussing this issue from a
technical point of view and see which parts of the patch can be salvaged
and which can not.
Hey,
First thank you for arranging all this points.
I just wanted to ask: could we also make nNextFreeElement be unsigned? Because with your proposal it would be possible to overflow it with the code like this: $array[pow(2, 32) + 1] = 123; (if I understand it correctly)
And besides that we can't have negative keys anyway.
