-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hello Internals, Has anyone given thought to a feature that allows (PHP) developer to invalidate classes (allowing the developer to re-load the class, with modified code)?

Is this worth further discussion?
There is a clever php4 implementation that allows loading/unloading of methods, info at http://pear.php.net/pepr/pepr-proposal-show.php?id=68 It does not use any engine magic and might be of use to you while you wait for PHP 6. :) Greg
