Re: Fw: [php-gtk-cvs] cvs: php-gtk / CODING_STANDARDS

The only thing that I would change is the part about user defined global constants: For other constants in the global namespace (that is, constants in your PHP code), stay with the PEAR format: MYCLASS_CONSTANT_NAME. The PEAR CS has to be backward compatible for PHP 4. That is why they require MYCLASS_*. Since we don't have to worry about PHP 4 any more, I think we should divert from PEAR a little here. Consistency would be better in my opinion. How about this: User defined classes should not declare constants in the global namespace. All user defined classes should declare constants in the class namespace. For example: MyClass::SOME_CONSTANT instead of MYCLASS_SOME_CONSTANT. Scott Steph Fox wrote:
