Edit report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=47472&edit=1 ID: 47472 Comment by: jeffreytgilbert at gmail dot com Reported by: belliash at gmail dot com Summary: Namespaces importing and usage Status: Open Type: Feature/Change Request Package: Feature/Change Request Operating System: Gentoo Linux PHP Version: 5.3.0beta1 Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: I'm having the exact same issue. PHP 5.4.7. The Namespace is never imported and can only be used when referencing the full or partial namespace path. This isn't close enough to how the expected functionality would work. This makes partially useless because all existing code that didn't call namespaces directly with their full or partial path referencing classes/methods etc wont work. You can't simply wrap your classes in a namespace and have them encapsulated for easy import where appropriate. Errant code: -------------------- <?php namespace Minnow\Framework{ class Startup{ public static function launchApplication(){ echo 'Application launched'; } } } namespace WebRoot{ use Minnow\Framework; Startup::launchApplication(); } Fatal error: Class 'WebRoot\Startup' not found in /Users/jeffreytgilbert/Desktop/Namespace-test-failure-use-namespace.php.php on line 12 Errant code: --------------------- <?php namespace Minnow\Framework{ class Startup{ public static function launchApplication(){ echo 'Application launched'; } } } namespace WebRoot{ use Minnow\Framework; \Startup::launchApplication(); } Fatal error: Class 'Startup' not found in /Users/jeffreytgilbert/Desktop/Namepsace-test-failure-root-namespace.php on line 12 Errant code: <?php namespace Minnow\Framework{ class Startup{ public static function launchApplication(){ echo 'Application launched'; } } } namespace WebRoot{ use Minnow\Framework; Startup::launchApplication(); } Fatal error: Class 'WebRoot\Startup' not found in /Users/jeffreytgilbert/Desktop/Namespace-test-default-namespace.php on line 12 ===================================== -- this is the part that chafes me ===================================== <?php namespace Minnow\Framework{ class Startup{ public static function launchApplication(){ echo 'Application launched'; } } } namespace WebRoot{ \Minnow\Framework\Startup::launchApplication(); } Works fine, which is silly because then it makes the "use" arguments pointless because this still works, which it should, but doesnt work in the global or default scope. <?php namespace Minnow\Framework{ class Startup{ public static function launchApplication(){ echo 'Application launched'; } } } namespace WebRoot{ use Minnow\Framework; \Minnow\Framework\Startup::launchApplication(); } Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2009-07-02 20:46:32] qwerty763jd at php dot org Huh, You released 5.3 and even does not check this bug report. You FAIL ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2009-02-22 11:07:28] belliash at gmail dot com Description: ------------ It is impossible to import namespace (to both global scope and to any other namespace). It is only possible to alias namespaces... Reproduce code: --------------- /* utils_left.php */ <?php namespace Utils\Left; function whichHand() { echo "I'm using my left hand!"; } ?> /* utils_right.php */ <?php namespace Utils\Right; function whichHand() { echo "I'm using my right hand!"; } ?> /* index.php */ <?php include('./utils_left.php'); include('./utils_right.php'); Utils\Left\whichHand(); // outputs "I'm using my left hand!" Utils\Right\whichHand(); // outputs "I'm using my right hand!" use Utils\Left; whichHand(); // outputs "I'm using my left hand!" use Utils\Right; whichHand(); // outputs "I'm using my right hand!" ?> Expected result: ---------------- I'm using my left hand!I'm using my right hand!I'm using my left hand!I'm using my right hand! Actual result: -------------- I'm using my left hand!I'm using my right hand! Fatal error: Call to undefined function whichHand() in /home/Belliash/HtDocs/test/index.php on line 9 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=47472&edit=1
