Re: [RFC] Allow "use( $longname as $alias)" syntax for closures declaration

Hi! > I am not sure but it is too expensive only for memory.

But more important is not that it is big by itself, but that it retains variables that are otherwise to be freed and thus increases overall memory usage. > we don't to know what variables will be needed in future.

And using additional > keyword for a bound with variables it's not doing it. I don't think it's very complex syntax - you just specify the variables. It takes 1 minute to read the manual and you know how to do it forever. It's not the rocket science to write use($a, $b). > At now this is there should not alter of course.
