Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2021-11-23 11:24:52] cmb@php.net Namespace imports are a compile time concept only; during runtime PHP has no general notion of these, only of the fully qualified names of individual classes, functions, etc. As such, implementing this feature would require quite some changes, possibly having detrimental effects on the engine, and the details are sufficiently unclear, so this would require the RFC process[1]. However, I wonder what would be the use-case at all. How could that be useful "to aid in autoloading"?
