Hi, we currently have private, protected and public visibility for properties and methods. however since we requently make use of container or will be increasingly emulating multiple inheritance via __call() I propose we also add "package" visibility as uml2 features. the idea here is that the given property/method should only be called by code that is part of the given package and not by the user. what do others think? in true uml style i would like to leave the discussion of how to handle the syntax of package visibility to a possible later discussion. regards, Lukas PS: uml sucks :-)
