In many other languages this will work: *$result = new Object() -> method();* But in php, it fails at parsing. I've tried with parenthesis around new but nothing. Anyhow, as I saw later, *new* operator has precedence over others so this couldn't be a solution. I know a static function can be defined and the above statement can transform into *$result = Object::getNewInstance() -> method()* but is there any way to write it directly? and if not, why isn't this implemented yet and when will it be? best regards, Patranescu Alexandru
