note 16614 added to language.oop

It seems impossible to define a member function with a name of ANY function already existing in PHP namespace. For me that's weird. This DOES NOT work in PHP 4.0.6: --- class Useless { function print ($s) { echo $s; } } $junk = new Useless; $junk->print ("hello"); --- , giving out Parse error: parse error, expecting `T_STRING' in script.php on line 4 Renaming member function 'print' into something unique like 'myPrint' makesthe thing work, but that's against the whole OOP encapsulation principle! To the editors - please comment. I'm totally exhausted trying to find the explanation in manuals - name conflict issue is not covered. If there's a configuration option that will 'unlock' this limitation, it MUST be clearly described on this chapter. If the limitation is fatal, it must be stated under 'This code will not work:' -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/language.oop.php http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+16614 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+16614 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+16614
