Req #70364 [Opn]: foreach type hinting

Edit report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=70364&edit=1 ID: 70364 User updated by: untuned20 at gmail dot com Reported by: untuned20 at gmail dot com Summary: foreach type hinting Status: Open Type: Feature/Change Request Package: Scripting Engine problem PHP Version: Irrelevant Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: I am seeing that php is trying to get more and more into type hinting, and that it would be nice to have type hinting in foreach loops as well as in functions. Not only would it give the same functionality as when declaring a function, but it would also allow IDE's to autocomplete nicely.
