Bug #12669 Updated: Utterly Global Variables - What Zeev was talkin about

ID: 12669 Updated by: roberto@berto.net Reported By: btanner@home.com Status: Open Bug Type: Feature/Change Request Operating System: All PHP Version: 4.0.6 New Comment: There are other requested that is duplicated from this one: #14712 Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2001-08-08 21:16:46] btanner@home.com "The new variables are auto-globals - they're available in all function contexts" - Zeev How hard would it be to allow a construct so that a developer could indicate that one or more variables was available in all scope. I have a big "Enviroment" class that does everything from data processing, security, access control, page rendering, etc, etc, etc. Its a huge pain to pass around a handle to my "$Env" variable all the time. If the access control list needs to check something about the user, or the page needs to know which template it should be rendering, I need to traverse my heirarchy via this handle. I'm tired of having references to it stored everywhere ;) Any chance of getting this? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=12669&edit=1
