Hi Lars,
No I hadn't heard of it. Unfortunately there seems precious little
documentation on it (in fact I can't find any list of methods).
It also seems quite new (some files committed 2 months ago). The aim
of SPL_Types seems to be to create strongly typed variables rather
than focusing on having a friendlier (IMHO) OO interface to the
existing string and array functions. That may be completely wrong but
without any docs and limited examples
and reviews thats what I understood. Is there any documentation on
SPL_Types anywhere?
Thanks
Mark
