>It is possible to name a method like an existing function, I'm not sure >what you are doing exactly but it works here. I've tried: STRING_METHOD(String, trim) {...} (Yes, I'm trying to build a string class) that means that I also redefinied the Macros. Then I've changed the Macros from PHP_METHOD and PHP_ME to ZEND_NAMED_FUNCTION and ZEND_FENTRY. Still on startup "PHP Warning: Function registration failed - duplicate name - trim" appears. >When your class is called zip and you have a function called zip_open, >it will conflict with the function name when you build against php < >5.2.0. It is fixed in 5.2 and a work around exists, see ext/zip for an >example. I haven't found any real differences (but now I know that there is more than one way to create a class). So I will have to wait for 5.2 to get a trim-method? Daniel
