 New Comment:

Imho this isn't obvious at all. At least your proposed syntax `new
(func())()` isn't quite readable or understandable.

Description:

Operator `new' accepts either class name as either symbol token or
variable

containing class name (T_STRING or

T_VARIABLE), but does not allow expressions returning class name.

Test script:
---
/* first form, works */

$handler = new SomeClass($constructorParam);



/* second form, works */

$handlerClass = handlerFor($something); /* returns name of some class to
be instantiated */

$handler = new $handlerClass($constructorParam);



/* third form -- does not work */

$handler = new (handlerFor($something))($constructorParam);

Expected result:

The third form ought to work just like the other two, so one doesn't
need to

create extra variable for single use.

Actual result:
--
PHP Parse error:  syntax error, unexpected '(', expecting T_STRING or
T_VARIABLE

or '$'

 New Comment:

does not works too:



new MyClass()-method();

(new MyClass())-method();



new ($className = FuncGetClassAsString())();



these are not really important to fix, but are welcome, in future maybe
