Hi,
I also think this a good proposal, but you might consider writing to the
internals group, as this group is only for discussions and most of the
people that read it are PHP users and have no idea how the language is made
(including me).

Emil Ivanov

Hi Jared,
I think you meant to post to php-general, but I can answer your question.
***PLEASE DO NOT REPLY TO PEAR-GENERAL THANK YOU***
You can achieve what you want through this kind of code
<?php
class TypeChecker
{
private static $types = array(
'array','bool','float','integer','null','numeric',
'object','resource','scalar','string'
);
public static $singleton;
static function init()
{
self::$singleton = new TypeChecker;
}
function __call($method, $args)
{
$test = new StdClass;
foreach (self::$types as $thing) {
$test->$thing = ${"is$thing"}($args[0]);
}
return $test->$method;
}
}
TypeChecker::init()
echo TypeChecker::$singleton->string('test');
?>
However, I don't see any benefit to using static methods here. Just use
an object.
<?php
class TypeChecker
{
private $types = array(
'array','bool','float','integer','null','numeric',
'object','resource','scalar','string'
);
function __call($method, $args)
{
$test = new StdClass;
foreach (self::$types as $thing) {
$test->$thing = ${"is$thing"}($args[0]);
}
return $test->$method;
}
}
$check = new TypeChecker;
echo $check->string('test');
?>
If you're trying to do several assertions and separate them into
classes, do something like so:
<?php
class Tester
{
public $type;
...
function __construct()
{
$this->type = new TypeChecker;
}
}
$check = new Tester;
echo $check->type->string('test');
?>

No problem, it's www.dapx.com, it hasn't a lot security, safe_mode is
off for example.
If you know the right stuff from another user on the same server, you
can actually do some nice stuff :)

Clients that rely on the subject to determine if it a new thread are
broken.
In fact, if you looked the headers of your email you will see a line
like this
message-id: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
my client takes that line and make a reference to it like this.
references: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
it will also create a new message-id: line. something like this.
message-id: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
if anybody replies to my message, the process is repeated.
Real, non-broken, email clients rely on the above lines to determine how
messages belong to one another. Again, it has nothing to do with the
subject line. Look at the subject line of this message.
As always it's not quite that simple. The problem is that there are no
hard and fast rules regarding mail headers, so when threading you can't
guarantee anything.
The "standard", or accepted reference algorithm for threading emails can
be found at http://www.jwz.org/doc/threading.html and is, I believe,
still used in a large number of clients including Thunderbird. Gmail
almost certainly uses their own concoction, but it probably follows
similar rules.

By default, no. But you can organise messages by thread. I don't like
the way "they" display it, but I wish people would get their facts
