We do have runtime constants created with define(), so the critical need in runtime namespace constants is quite questionable to me.
"Critical need" is a matter of definition. You can do define(__NAMESPACE__.'::foo', 'bar') but frankly, it sucks. const foo = 'bar' looks so much better. That said, you are welcome to propose non-confusing syntax achieving the same :) -- Stanislav Malyshev, Zend Software Architect stas@zend.com http://www.zend.com/ (408)253-8829 MSN: stas@zend.com
