4.1 & Declaration Case Persistance

Hi folks- I brought this up a few months ago, and due to either tacid approval or utter disinterest I was unable to spark a discussion or gather a concensus :) Right now, when a class (or method, or function) is declared, its name is zend_str_tolower()'d. This provides the case-insensitivity that PHP has, but it would be nice if the original casing on the class name was persisted so that functions like get_class would return the actual *as-declared* class name. This has a rather narrow end-user meaning for most people, but not for teams like ours who structure their code with cased filenames. The current implementation can be worked-around, I'm just not sure I see any advantage of lowercasing the declarative as opposed to just maintaining a hash of lowercase => as_declared. That would still allow for case-insensitivity while allowing the reverse-lookup functions to be more correct. Any opinions? Have I overlooked something that makes this more difficult than it seems? I'm willing to work on this if I can gather some positive concensus. -- John Donagher Application Engineer Intacct Corp. - Powerful Accounting on the Web 408-395-0989 720 University Ave. Los Gatos CA 95032 www.intacct.com Public key available off http://www.keyserver.net Key fingerprint = 4024 DF50 56EE 19A3 258A D628 22DE AD56 EEBE 8DDD
