Re: T_AS in closures

Hi! > I was clicking on bugs.php.net/random today and I came across #54888, > which is a feature request for the following syntax: > > $foo = 'whatever'; > $bar = function() use ($foo as $baz) { /* use $baz here */ }; What this allows to do that simple $baz = $foo and use $baz wouldn't do? I think adding syntax that does not substantially expand what you can do is not right. It just makes language larger and harder to learn and understand. -- Stanislav Malyshev, Software Architect SugarCRM: http://www.sugarcrm.com/ (408)454-6900 ext. 227
