Since you obviously could not care less about our time and you would like to waste our precious spare time on things that have been discussed to death rather then actually improving the language, I'll mention it one more time. Variables and class properties will NOT be "type hinted" until PHP version ~21.2.0. And because you are disrespecting everyone on this list, by not doing your homework, everything you have to say from here on now will probably be ignored because we all will remember you as "the guy who is to important to read the archives". > (As to your original proposal, multiple method signatures is something > I've come across a need for *occasionally*, though personally, I'm not > a big fan of the feature -- the one place I would like having it is > __construct(). I believe you know the basics of PHP. Knowing the basics of PHP you should be able to imagine that this cannot work in PHP, ever. Not even in PHP 21.2.0. No matter how much you want it. Unfortunately I would like scalar type hinting, but everytime you guys drag scalar type hinting into the mud with features you very well know will never happen, and don't read the archives, you are just hurting the scalar type hinting team. Thanks for absolutely killing it. -Hannes -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
