It was really unclear to me too, this example cleared it up: http://github.com/gron/php-src/blob/PHP_5_3-traits/Zend/tests/traits/bugs/al ias-semantics.phpt The current trait implementation does not 'rename' the previous method but creates an 'alias'. > class Talker { > use A, B { > B::smallTalk instead A; > A::bigTalk instead B; > B::smallTalk as talk; > } > } I think in this case, it would output 'A'. Personally I would prefer to see: class Talker { use A { public function bigTalk(); } use B { public function smallTalk(); public function smallTalk() as talk(); // this 'renames' the function / not an alias } } Other example: class Talker { use A; use B { public function smallTalk() as talk(); } } -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
