Edit report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=52505&edit=1 ID: 52505 Updated by: nikic@php.net Reported by: robert dot de dot wilde at online dot nl Summary: Define namespace relative to current (namespace) context -Status: Open +Status: Wont fix Type: Feature/Change Request Package: Class/Object related Operating System: Any PHP Version: 5.3.3 Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: Namespaces in PHP are compile-time resolved, which necessitates them being strictly per-file -- includes are run-time operations. This is not going to change, so I'm marking this as Won't Fix.

See test script. Test script: --------------- // global file namespace MyNS\Usr\Models { require_once('MadMans\class.MadMansModel.php'); print_r( new MadMan\MadMansModel() /* which refers to MyNs\Usr\Models\MadMan\MadMansModel */ ); } // required file namespace .\MadMan { class MadMansModel { // .. } } ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=52505&edit=1
