erm, interfaces do care about method signatures either that or my php5 install
is magic:
# php5 -r '
interface Foo { function bar($v, $k); } class Qux implements Foo { function
bar() {} }'
Fatal error: Declaration of Qux::bar() must be compatible with that of
Foo::bar() in Command line code on line 2
# php5 -r '
interface Foo { function bar($v, $k); } class Qux implements Foo { function
bar($a, $b, $c) {} }'
Fatal error: Declaration of Qux::bar() must be compatible with that of
Foo::bar() in Command line code on line 2
