Re: do_declare_property()

You can find the class the object was instanctiated from right? (var_dump an object, you'll see..) class ThisIsAClass { } $ThisIsAnObject = new ThisIsAClass; var_dump($ThisIsAnObject) This is pretty much the same right as function foo (class MyObject $obj) { } You could use this in a C function..
