Re: Re: new overloading feature?

Hello Alex, but PHP is a class based langauage which is very much different from prototype based langauages. Apart from that i already said that it would be possible to add a special 'called_self' (or better name) syntax to support what you want - only that would slow doen execution even if you won't use it. And since what you want is not the correct way of doing it in a class based language i don't think we should add it. regards marcus Tuesday, May 10, 2005, 6:33:55 PM, you wrote: > 2005/5/10, Sebastian Bergmann <sb@sebastian-bergmann.de>: >> Lukas Smith wrote: >> > http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=30235 >> >> I agree with Marcus: self is bound at runtime, so the behaviour is >> correct.
