Bug #14428: range-based regrouping and import ability

From: foobardotcom@poczta.onet.pl Operating system: all PHP version: 4.1.0 PHP Bug Type: Feature/Change Request Bug description: range-based regrouping and import ability It would be nice, if some 'future-thinking' group od PHP developers will convert all, for example string functions into String class. I mean, that for example instead of using strpos($mystring, "b") it would be nice to make it: String::pos($mystring, "b") or to create Java-like objects, so: $mystring->pos("b") will be the best. If functions will be used, then should be imported, like in Perl or Java: import(::String). Of course, you can use pos(), but now take care about current package and it's function pos(), like in Perl or Java. -- Edit bug report at: http://bugs.php.net/?id=14428&edit=1
