To make it optional was to lower the issues for those who don't care about argument strictness. We did not give them this choice for the OO strictness.OO mandates you to work in certain way. However, the way PHP works with values was never type-strict and there's no reason to suddenly change PHP into type-strict language. -- Stanislav Malyshev, Zend Software Architect stas@zend.com http://www.zend.com/ (408)253-8829 MSN: stas@zend.com
