Re: feature request: user-defined superglobals

Hi Andi Gutmans, you wrote:

Hi, This has been discussed in the past (see the archives of either this list or engine2). You'll have to manage with the existing ones. Very sad. Why is that?

I took a look into the archive but couldn't find any reason!? Is it such a hard problem to get this work? I don't primary need this to access vars, but object methods (ok, objects are also vars...) of a large application framework I'm working on. I can't understand what the problem is. Ok, probably many people would misuse that for all there global vars - is that the argument against it? Is it a performance problem? But this 'feature' would help frameworks or huge applications to get shorter/easier access to there API ! $_MYFW->method_a(); is nicer than $GLOBALS['_MYFW']->method_a(); and also shorter for vars u're using very often...

Hi Devs, is there a possibility to get a php function like declare_superglobal($_MYVAR); And then be able to use $_MYVAR as the existing superglobals ($_GET, $_SESSION, etc.) ??? I think, it would be a really nice feature! Is that a huge problem to get this work?
