note 57502 added to language.variables.scope

I wonder if the PHP designers could make it possible to apply an array of variable names to the GLOBAL keyword without using a loop. For example: function global_in_here() { $names=array("var1","var2","var3"); global array_to_variable_list($names); # what function would be used here to convert the array to a variable list? } rather than: function global_in_here() { $names=array("var1","var2","var3"); foreach($names AS $name) global $$name; } Victor Epand, Owner Krishna Design ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/language.variables.scope.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+57502 Delete: added to the manual -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+57502&report=yes&reason=added+to+the+manual Delete: bad code -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+57502&report=yes&reason=bad+code Delete: spam -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+57502&report=yes&reason=spam Delete: useless -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+57502&report=yes&reason=useless Delete: non-english -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+57502&report=yes&reason=non-english Delete: already in docs -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+57502&report=yes&reason=already+in+docs Delete: other reasons -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+57502&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+57502&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
