IIRC there was an informal consensus to use studlyCaps as the official userland convention for OOP extensions (*) (leaving aside the case insensitivity of the language.) my question now concerns accessors. should we prefer properties over propertyGet()/propertySet() accessor functions ? would having both constitute bloat. i ask because im implementing a series of classes mirroring those in the Caffeinated Language (tm) so familiarity could be an asset. l0t3k (*) i wonder if this should be more formalized before the next major release. major extensions like dom/xsl are already using the current method->function_ name() convention.
I definitely prefer setXXX()/getXXX() functions over property overloading. Andi
