RE: [PHP-DEV] Property Overloading RFC

I have to say I still don't get the point of this. If you're declaring virtual properties, you can just use normal declare normal, non-virtual variables just as well. It's pointless if you ask me. They're not virtual anymore if you're declaring them beforehand. _This_ would be something that adds _real_ complexity to the language. And it introduces a new keyword, too. - David > -----Original Message----- > From: Lukas Smith [mailto:lsmith@php.net] > Sent: Friday, August 26, 2005 12:03 AM > To: Derick Rethans > Cc: PHP Developers Mailing List; Jan Borsodi; Raymond Bosman; Frederik > Holljen; Tobias Schlitt > Subject: Re: [PHP-DEV] Property Overloading RFC > > Derick Rethans wrote: > > On Tue, 2 Aug 2005, Derick Rethans wrote: > > > I updated the proposal: > > http://files.derickrethans.nl/property_overloading.html > > 1) seems to be an issue in doxygen and phpDocumentor > > 2) this seems solveable with a non public set of arrays containing > information about the property and its visibility .. > > with a bit of hacking phpDocumentor could even read this information if > they/we decide on a suggested nameing standard. i dont see why we should > pollute the php language with this though > > 3) sounds like a great idea. we should also have something like this for > __call(). > > regards, > Lukas > > -- > PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List > To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php >
