W liście Ryan Panning z dnia piątek 17 października 2008: > Request              Autoload Gets   Type > ----------------------------------------------- > A::B:>C              A::B:>C         Class > A::B:>func()         A::B            Namespace > A::B:>C::CONST       A::B:>C         Class > A::B::C:>D::method() A::B::C:>D      Class > A::B::C::D:>CONST    A::B::C::D      Namespace I'm just a mere user, but if we go for other namespace separator (be it ::: or :> or anything else), then I'd rather see it used both between namespace and class/function/constant name *and* between namespace parts. To be clear - for the examples above I'd rather have them written as: A:>B:>C A:>B:>func() A:>B:>C::CONST A:>B:>C:>D::method() or A:::B:::C, A:::B:::func, A:::B:::C::CONST. That way :: is just operator for static class access (static methods and properties), while :> or ::: is just namespace access operator, so we can always assume that anything on the left side of ::: or :> is a namespace. In Ryan's version :: is sometimes static class access operator, sometimes namespace segment separator, depending on position. -- Paweł Stradomski
