Re: Renaming namespaces to packages

While PHP implementation of namespaces is may not be 100% of what people consider to be namespaces it is close enough and I think the name "namespaces" is most appropriate and clear cut. We don't call PHP objects "Zend Objects" or some other strange name, I don't see why namespaces should be any different IMHO. On 17-Aug-07, at 11:06 AM, Richard Quadling wrote:

Oh dear. I thought the general feeling was to stick with namespaces? On 17/08/07, Johannes Schlüter <johannes@php.net> wrote:

Hi, I've updated the patch to be compatible with Dmitry's latest changes: http://schlueters.de/~johannes/php/zend_namespace_to_package_20070817.diff johannes On Fri, 2007-08-10 at 11:26 +0200, Johannes Schlüter wrote:

Hi, I think we reached the consensus to rename namespaces to packages as our implementation is more package-like. Therefore I wrote the corresponding patch which tries to get rid of all "namespaces" and "ns" (well, not all "ns" only the namespace-related ones of course) used in the code. Additionally I changed all package-tests. Any objections? Does anybody (with the move-on-CVS-server powers) care about the history of the tests? Then please cp ZendEngine2/tests/ns_* to pkg_* there else I'll do a simple cvs rm and cvs add. The patch is at http://schlueters.de/~johannes/php/zend_namespace_to_package.diff and the tarball with the changed tests at http://schlueters.de/~johannes/php/zend_package_tests.tar.bz2 johannes
