I think that's laying it on a bit thick. It's no worse than Python's "from __future__ import", or JS's 'use strict;' (quotes included). I wish unknown declare directives were ignored, though, because it would make for a great forward-compatibility mechanism. Still, that, like the syntax format, is a decision made many years ago. -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
