Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2013-03-25 06:36:50] laruence@php.net always declare before use(or use autoload mechanism)... this is the current implementation, I don't think it's need to be fixed. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2013-03-24 15:56:15] rstoll at tutteli dot ch Description: ------------ My PHP version is 5.4.7 forward references of classes do not work if the class implements an interface. Test script: --------------- $a = new Ok(); //that's ok class OK{} $a = new Fail(); //fails interface I{} class Fail implements I{} Expected result: ---------------- I would expect that forward references are also supported for classes which implement an interface ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=64504&edit=1
