Re: PHP 5.1

SB>> patch [1] by Johannes Schl?ter that has been floating around for a SB>> while? 1. I personally don't think operator overloading is a good idea. It doesn't add you anything you couldn't do without it the same way - it's pure syntax sugar. And it really ruins the readability of the code - go figure what $i++ means now, in absence of any type delcarations. 2. The referenced patch raises doubts - why it allows to override / but not %, for example? What with all other operators? Why add would work as $foo + 1, but 1 + $foo won't? Will + be non-commutative operation from now on? What with assign-ops - it would leak memory in this case? -- Stanislav Malyshev, Zend Products Engineer stas@zend.com http://www.zend.com/ +972-3-6139665 ext.115
