Well, you have get_class_vars() which can retrieve all the default properties (i.e. the ones declared with 'var $foo'). And your last suggestions is against the nature of PHP. You just do not have to declare variables to use it. Making this a doc problem though I'm not quite sure; letting the doc team decide. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-04-07 18:31:55] [EMAIL PROTECTED] I am not sure whether this is a bug, a feature, or lack of a feature. Perhaps this should be marked a "Feature Request" then... Anyway, here goes: the var declaration in a class seems to have no meaning whatsoever, except perhaps for documentation purposes. PHP allows me to assign to class variables that weren't declared without even a warning at the highest warning reporting level. That's actually not very surprising since PHP doesn't otherwise have declarations of variables, but what is then the meaning of var in classes? I suggest that PHP should at least warn about class variables that weren't declared. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=16479&edit=1
