in the long run functions and constants will be added to namespaces ... and then the ambiguity issues will have to be dealt with. I believe Greg's namespace member concept will be required even if the syntax is/must/should/will changed to something everyone finds acceptable.
Did you really mean to say that. Push namespaces out now - incomplete - and then change them again later? Why should we even bother using them if they don't do the whole job and are going to change again. Things like PHPEclipse and phpdocumentor need some major work to support this extra level, and that can't start until the format has been fixed - and now even that is not certain ? -- Lester Caine - G8HFL ----------------------------- Contact - http://lsces.co.uk/lsces/wiki/?page=contact L.S.Caine Electronic Services - http://lsces.co.uk EnquirySolve - http://enquirysolve.com/ Model Engineers Digital Workshop - http://medw.co.uk// Firebird - http://www.firebirdsql.org/index.php
