As I see from current code, it also does :) It works. What we cannot do is inheriting a function and specifying a base class typehint: class Root { } class Base { function f(Base $p) {} } class Leaf { function f(Root $p) {} } It is doable as the following patch shows: http://somabo.de/php/ext/ze2/ze2-type-hint-classes-20040327.diff.txt (the patch me be a little bit outdated though).
