I have tried to get into the new object and class thing of php5 and - the documentation doesnt really help. It is explained how things are, but not what they mean. example: visibility It states that visibility must be defined. But what is visibility? What is the effect of public or protected? Nothing of that kind in there. As it is, unless you know the stuff already (in which case you dont need the doku) you can work with it. If you dont (and therefore need the doku) you cant. Sorry for the bother, but I depend on this... Thanks, Jakob Reproduce code: --------------- // no code - documentation problem Expected result: ---------------- // none Actual result: -------------- // none ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=33498&edit=1
