Req #69262 [NEW]: Native property-support

From: andreas dot prucha at gmail dot com Operating system: PHP version: Irrelevant Package: PHP Language Specification Bug Type: Feature/Change Request Bug description:Native property-support Description: ------------ I think native support for properties like in Delphi would be nice. For example: { protected $myPropertyField; public proprety $myProperty get $myPropertyField set setMyProperty; public function setMyProperty($aValue) { $this->myPropertyField = $aValue; } } In the declaration a getter and setter could be defined, which could be either direct reference to a variable or a setter/getter function. I know it's syntatctic sugar, but it may make property declarations more obvious, easier to document (once phpdocumentor supports it) and it might even bring slight performance gains as we do not go through __get and __set to determine the getter/setter function. -- Edit bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=69262&edit=1 -- Try a snapshot (PHP 5.4): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=69262&r=trysnapshot54 Try a snapshot (PHP 5.5): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=69262&r=trysnapshot55 Try a snapshot (trunk): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=69262&r=trysnapshottrunk Fixed in SVN: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=69262&r=fixed Fixed in release: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=69262&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=69262&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=69262&r=needscript Try newer version: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=69262&r=oldversion Not developer issue: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=69262&r=support Expected behavior: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=69262&r=notwrong Not enough info: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=69262&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=69262&r=submittedtwice register_globals: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=69262&r=globals PHP 4 support discontinued: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=69262&r=php4 Daylight Savings: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=69262&r=dst IIS Stability: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=69262&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=69262&r=gnused Floating point limitations: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=69262&r=float No Zend Extensions: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=69262&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=69262&r=mysqlcfg
