Bug description:Make traits more flexibile
Description:
------------
I find traits very useful (i've been waiting for their availability for a
long time) - however I think people could benefit from having a bit more
flexibility when using them - specifically when dealing with trait method
renaming - rather then being forced to choose one method over the other, I
think it would be useful to have the option to rename all methods from all
traits to our liking. I've posted an example in the test/script section.
Test script:
---------------
trait dog {
public function bark() {
echo("Bark, bark, bark!<br>");
$this->breathe();
}
public function breathe() {
echo("...dog breathing...<br>");
}
}
trait snake {
public function hiss() {
echo("ssssss!<br>");
$this->breathe();
}
public function breathe() {
echo("...snake breathing...<br>");
}
}
class pugosnake {
use dog, snake {
//What I think it would be useful is this
dog::breathe as dogBreathe;
dog::bark as dogBark; // which will call the correct breathe
function
(dogBreathe now);
snake::breathe as snakeBreathe;
snake::hiss as snakeHiss; // which will also call the correct
breathe
function (snakeBreathe now);
}
}
$a = new pugosnake();
$a->dogBreathe(); // Produces "Bark, bark, bark...dog breathing..."
$a->snakeBreathe(); // Produces "ssssss...snake breathing..."
// Right now this doesn't work as we're forced to select one breathe method
over the other
