This could lead to weird scenarios where the same $foo->bar in random function could call or not call an accessor depending on the stack trace (provided that accessors call out to other functions - which is not frequent but can definitely happen). In case of __get it's harmless since we know $foo->bar doesn't exist anyway, but if we do allow $bar to exist in $foo it might get weird. I'd certainly appreciate some notice/E_STRICT if this happens. Maybe I'd go even as far as issuing E_STRICT on having both $bar and any of the accessors for $bar in the same class - but this of course would scream on the scenario of augmenting existing $bar with accessors - which is legit, unless it gets weird as described above. -- Stanislav Malyshev, Software Architect SugarCRM: http://www.sugarcrm.com/ (408)454-6900 ext. 227 -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
