Re: Re: [RFC] Type hints (parameter and return value)

Christian Schneider > I don't like the difference between > function (int) test($value) { ... } > and > function test(integer $value) { ... } First is function return value should be int, second is function arg should be int. So full syntax will be like this function (integer) test(integer $value) { ... } That means function takes an integer as argument and returns integer value. If any is violated - Catchable error will be thrown. That's my understanding of this patch. Some more examples function (resource) query(string $table, array $where = array(), array $limit = array()) { ... } function (array) getData(string $table, array $limit = array(0, 20), array $where = array()) { /* cals query and generates an array from result */ } etc.
