note 107735 added to language.oop5.traits

The difference between Traits and multiple inheritance is in the inheritance part. A trait is not inherited from, but rather included or mixed-in, thus becoming part of "this class". Traits also provide a more controlled means of resolving conflicts that inevitably arise when using multiple inheritance in the few languages that support them (C++). Most modern languages are going the approach of a "traits" or "mixin" style system as opposed to multiple-inheritance, largely due to the ability to control ambiguities if a method is declared in multiple "mixed-in" classes. Also, one can not "inherit" static member functions in multiple-inheritance. ---- Server IP: 69.147.83.197 Probable Submitter: 75.46.79.70 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/language.oop5.traits.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/107735 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/107735/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/107735/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/107735/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/107735/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/107735/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/107735/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/107735 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/107735 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
