First of all, I'd love seeing this feature in PHP, and it would be a very large incentive to upgrade to 5.6 asap when it would be included (without bugs of course:)
I simply have to ask. What do you think this will actually give you productivity wise? Personally I only see this as a totally backwards step which requires a lot more code in every function call when if anything we should be simplifying that area. I know I'm not the only person who does not like all this clutter and complication, and to be honest in my case it would be yet another reason not to upgrade from my current PHP5.4 base ... which I'm still trying to bring all the rest of my code up to ... Saying I do not have to use it is simply not acceptable, since like E_STRICT, it will be used to bring in yet more changes which have to be managed later. Certainly PHP5.6 is not the venue for such a drastic change. -- Lester Caine - G8HFL ----------------------------- Contact - http://lsces.co.uk/wiki/?page=contact L.S.Caine Electronic Services - http://lsces.co.uk EnquirySolve - http://enquirysolve.com/ Model Engineers Digital Workshop - http://medw.co.uk Rainbow Digital Media - http://rainbowdigitalmedia.co.uk
