I agree with philip on this, and believe it should at least be mentioned. When a person new to PHP reads the manual, they won't automatically go to the PHP5-section to read up on the changes since PHP4, they'll instead want to read them in the manual itself, in the places that it actually applies to. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-01-26 02:14:13] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Jed, there is no such general rule. If you find places in the manual that "aren't clear" on this then please fix it or submit a bug report. The only real difference between PHP 4 and PHP 5 is the OOP model which is why a separate OOP section exists. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-01-26 01:09:12] [EMAIL PROTECTED] It's mentioned in the PHP 5 docs, and includes implementing Iterator from the SPL. http://www.php.net/manual/en/language.oop5.iterations.php I think the general rule is place things where it doesn't seem like they'd be, since PHP 5 is so radically different it deserves its own manual section, and the rest of the manual isn't clear on what PHP 4 and PHP 5 is anymore. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-01-25 23:51:07] [EMAIL PROTECTED] assigning to myself (so I don't forget) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-01-25 23:50:42] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Description: ------------ The foreach documentation page doesn't mention the fact that foreach can also be used to iterate trough an object's properties. Reproduce code: --------------- - Expected result: ---------------- foreach contains a notice about objects Actual result: -------------- none ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=31697&edit=1
