OpenBSD 4.1: Puffy Strikes Again (O'ReillyNet)OpenBSD 4.1: Puffy Strikes Again (O'ReillyNet)Posted May 7, 2007 15:14 UTC (Mon) by tjc (subscriber, #137)In reply to: OpenBSD 4.1: Puffy Strikes Again (O'ReillyNet) by tetromino Parent article: OpenBSD 4.1: Puffy Strikes Again (O'ReillyNet)
... and lack of time to read the documentation.I didn't find the documentation to be all that good. There's a lot of it, but that's not quite the same thing. For example, porting an existing multi-file PHP application to perl is difficult, because multi-file applications are awkward and non-intuitive in Perl (nightmarish problems with variable scoping), and there's not much written about it.

OpenBSD 4.1: Puffy Strikes Again (O'ReillyNet) Posted May 7, 2007 17:19 UTC (Mon) by niner (subscriber, #26151) [Link] Yes, multi-file applications are a real horror in PHP. Always having to guess where an include file might be, where variables and functions are coming from and having fun getting your variables over-written because there is nothing like a name space concept...
But the horror really starts with the documentation. A bare minimum of explanation leaving out important details, wrong examples and promotion of bad coding style. And comments that gladly explain you how their hello world app works.
