Davey Shafik (http://pear.php.net/user/davey) has commented on the proposal for
PHP::PHP_Compat_Func.
Comment:
I just had a thought,
If we do something like:
class PHP_Compatibility {
function require($function,$type = 'function') {
if ($type == 'function') {
// this allows us to provide compatibility classed too
if (!function_exists($function)) {
require_once 'PHP/Compatiblity/functions/' .$function. '.php';
}
}
}
}
And the user just does:
PHP_Compatiblity::require('glob'); for example
its *much* better than them having to do the function_exists tests and such themselves over and
over....
