RE: [PHP-DEV] parent_ctor()

You can't say "I want to do it > in PHP, but PHP can't do it at all and its entire implementation and concept doesn't > work this way, so I'll do it in Java". If you want the Java OO model and > approach you want to do it in Java, period. Don't change PHP to be what > it's not and not supposed to be; Use the right tool for the right job. It made sense to me :) What I mean is that I enjoy ALOT of the functionality that PHP has, making it quite easy to manipulate data, and I will miss those if I have to go for java instead of PHP. As you can see by the list I made, I don't find the missing things -- except for the serializing-reference problem -- a big problem. I don't think I am trying to bend PHP to something that it is not, since there are heaps of java stuff that I will never need, but there are heaps of PHP functionality that i WILL need, and that java CAN provide though not as easily as PHP. I completely agree that PHP shouldn't try to be everything, and I am not trying to make it be, I am just trying to see if it's possible to get *the* functionality (again, my point of view...yadda...yadda...) that *I* need to push PHP as *the* language of choice for the projects I am making, and I don't think that the changes/problems I have mean that PHP should be everything. Might be wrong though :-) Kind regards, David Hjortsoe.
