A while back, Nikita mentioned that it should now be easy to offer an abbreviated syntax for functions that are just a single expression. I decided to take a crack at it and it turns out he was right. I thus offer this RFC:
https://wiki.php.net/rfc/short-functions Hopefully I made a decent enough case for it. It's entirely a convenience factor, but I think for many OOP cases (getter methods and factored out operations) and functional cases (where functions should generally be a single expression conceptually) it does make the code nicer, more compact, and more readable. *dons flame retardant suit* -- Larry Garfield la...@garfieldtech.com -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: https://www.php.net/unsub.php
