phpBB 3.0 is being written to produce no notices or warnings about var's not being initiated even when running E_ALL.
What about E_STRICT? E_STRICT is not included in E_ALL.

E_STRICT is for PHP 5.0, which includes E_ALL's error reporting, so in theory, E_STRICT will have the same effect. See the reference page on PHP.net for more info.

In a way. E_STRICT actually catches a few more things above E_ALL. It will even kill the script if something isn't right, too. I think it would be a good idea to get phpBB3 working in E_STRICT. Especially since I run all my PHP5 instances in E_STRICT mode. :mrgreen:

That would make phpBB 100% PHP5 compatable, but phpBB 3.0 is for both PHP4 and PHP5, so to make it as compatable as possible, E_ALL will be used. However, when phpBB reaches its RC stages, feel free to report bugs about phpBB failing under E_STRICT.
