Syntax forced cast, it makes sense not only for scalar types, but also for instances of classes.
Is a syntactic sugar can be realized
<?php
class User
{
public function __construct(int $id)
{
......
}
}
function printPerson((User) $object)
{
var_dump($object);
return ($object instanceof User);
}
printPerson(new User(101)); // TRUE
printPerson(101); // TRUE
// scalar int = 101, sent to constructor method class User, the resulting
instance User passed to the function printPerson
