this enables ZE2 to gracefully parse scripts written in UTF-8 (with BOM),
UTF-16, UTF-32, Shift_JIS, ISO-2022-JP etc... (when configured with
'--enable-zend-multibyte' and '--enable-mbstring')
- The fields of zend_namespace were not completely initialized which
led to a variety of problems.
- The occurrence of class/interface/namespace definition is now
captured.
- Functions/classes/interfaces/namespaces can be preceded by doc
comments which are stored for use by extensions.
1. Nested classes are gone.
2. New syntax for namespaces:
namespace foo {
class X { ... }
function bar { ... }
var x = 1;
const ZZ = 2;
}
3. Namespaced symbol access: $x = new foo::X; - etc.
For now, namespaces are case insensitive, just like classes.
Also, there can be no global class and namespace with the same name
(to avoid ambiguities in :: resolution).
- Implement abstract methods, syntax:
- abstract function foo($vars);
- I don't see any reason why modifiers such as static/public need to be
- used with abstract. PHP is weakly typed and there would be no meaning to
- this anyway. People who want a strictly typed compiled language are
- looking in the wrong place.
- some fixes by me).
- You can't access protected variables from outside the object. If you want
- to see a protected member from your ancestors you need to declare the
- member as protected in the class you want to use it in. You can't
- redeclare a protected variable as private nor the other way around.
- understand why Java didn't do so.
- If you still want to control destruction of your object then either make
- sure you kill all references or create a destruction method which you
- call yourself.
- It isn't complete yet but I want to work on it from another machine. It
- shouldn't break anything else so just don't try and use it.
- The following is a teaser of something that already works:
<?php
class MyClass
{
function hello()
{
print "Hello, World\n";
}
class MyClass2
{
function hello()
{
print "Hello, World in MyClass2\n";
}
}
}
import function hello, class MyClass2 from MyClass;
MyClass2::hello();
hello();
?>
