Re: [RFC] [DISCUSSION] Immutable/final/readonly properties

TL;DR; I plan to open the vote on Monday because the proposal feels complete for me. Read more to find out why I think so. Nicolas, do you have any specific use-case in mind that would require a workaround outlined in my previous email above the current possibilities (lazy initialization, unsetting before first write)? At first, I wasn't entirely sure if we really need additional reflection methods, but after a quick chat with Nikita, I'm even less so. Furthermore, it seems that ProxyManager will be able to work together with my proposal in its current form, so I fail to see what use-case would need more special treatment? Doctrine maybe? Although I am not very familiar with it, using ReflectionClass::newInstanceWithoutConstructor() could work around the limitations imposed by write-once properties. That said, I'd like to start the vote on Monday if no major issues emerge meanwhile, because the proposal feels complete now and I can't think of any specific use-case that would be blocked by write-once properties. Of course, if we yet find any, we can always add support for additional reflection-based workarounds later. Máté
