All,
An interesting point was brought up related to block mode:
https://twitter.com/drrotmos/status/568540722586107904
Namely that generated file caches may need the ability to switch block
mode on-and-off.
I'm considering making the change to add that. If that happens,
declare must be the outermost block, and no non-declare blocks would
be allowed in the outermost scope of the file:
<?php
declare(strict_types=1) {
//...
}
declare(strict_types=0) {
//...
}
Having trailing code or code outside of the declare would be a compile error.
<?php
declare(strict_types=1) {
//...
}
foo(); // compile error
This behaves consistent with namespace block-mode today (though the
strict type declaration would be required to be outside the namespace
block).
I'm considering adding it, as it's a valid use-case. What do you think?
Thanks
Anthony
