Re: Traits

Hi Tom: The status is still identical to what the RFC says + some extensions to the reflection API. Thus, you can define properties in Traits just like in classes, and I would encourage you to do so, if that is the way you use PHP. However, there is no conflict detection with other traits. Thus, you have to make sure that your property names are descriptive and unique over all traits you combine. Finding a solution for that problem wasn't possible so far. At least not in a way that makes people happy i.e. avoids tons of complex and rather academic constructs to ensure that you get what you want with respect to state. Hope that helps Best regards Stefan On 27 Aug 2010, at 16:43, Tom Boutell wrote: > What was the status of data for traits in the implementation that went > into trunk? > > Would one have to do that by creating public properties that aren't > formally defined? > > On Fri, Jun 4, 2010 at 8:13 AM, Christian Kaps > <christian.kaps@mohiva.com> wrote: >> That sounds good and I hope it will be included in the next release. >> >> Best regards, >> Christian >> >> >>> Hi: >>> >>> On 04 Jun 2010, at 13:46, Christian Kaps wrote: >>> >>> >>>> A short while ago there was a discussion about implementing Traits in >>>> the next PHP version.
