I do a lot of object oriented stuff with PHP. I was wondering
how hard it would be to implement a classpath functionality, like in
Java, such that when a new statement is encountered, ie:
$ob = new Oject;
That if the interpreter doesn't know class Object it would
search a set path for a file named Object.<whatever>, and include it.
For the extension I was thinking of something like .pc for php class.
This could work something like the include path does. This way for OO
programmers you wouldn't need to have include statements scattered all
around the place and wonder if you have already included the file or
not, eliminating the double include problem.
Later,
Mark
