Indeed I've overlooked it :) Here's a strip down version which uses the function name "toString". http://marcus-boerger.de/php/ext/ze2/ze2-tostring-20030902.diff.txt As you can see it would now require every object implementing that function. However the idea behind is that the cast handler should verify if a certain interface was implemented and only then call that function which must then be present. But the interface registering stuff is still missing (part of the bigger patch - so i skipped that part for now). The intersting point though is the cnage of the cast handler in c. It now allows to support only selected conversions as already stated. -- Best regards, Marcus mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
