Req #80221 [NEW]: Object-oriented interface for HashContext

From: divinity76 at gmail dot com Operating system: PHP version: Next Minor Version Package: hash related Bug Type: Feature/Change Request Bug description:Object-oriented interface for HashContext Description: ------------ the current HashContext only has a procedural interface, some people would prefer having an Object-oriented interface instead. (the same way mysqli_query() & co has both a procedural and object-oriented api) for example, the current way to hash $str1 and $str2 is: $hc = hash_init("SHA1"); hash_update($hc, $str1); hash_update($hc, $str2); $result = hash_final($hc); (i've omitted error-checking for brevity) but if we had an OO interface, it could also be written as: $result = (new HashContext("SHA1"))->update($str1)->update($str2)->final(); some people would prefer that. something like this: https://3v4l.org/lXd3u Test script: --------------- <?php $str1 = "foo"; $str2 = "bar"; $result = (new HashContext("SHA1"))->update($str1)->update($str2)->final(); echo $result; Expected result: ---------------- 8843d7f92416211de9ebb963ff4ce28125932878 -- Edit bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=80221&edit=1 -- Fix committed: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=80221&r=fixed Fixed in release: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=80221&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=80221&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=80221&r=needscript Try newer version: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=80221&r=oldversion Not developer issue: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=80221&r=support Expected behavior: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=80221&r=notwrong Not enough info: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=80221&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=80221&r=submittedtwice register_globals: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=80221&r=globals PHP version support discontinued: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=80221&r=phptooold Daylight Savings: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=80221&r=dst IIS Stability: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=80221&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=80221&r=gnused Floating point limitations: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=80221&r=float No Zend Extensions: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=80221&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=80221&r=mysqlcfg
