I'd assume the > first but people _will_ get confused. Methos __call works as a proxy for the non existing/virtual methods hence i expect it's visibility makes the visibility of the virtual methods. If we want different visibility for the handled methods then we probably need a new keyword 'virtual' tha allows to declare a virtua methods visibility. Thats by the way also usefull for the virtual properties handled by __get/__set. > And I think __call has such few uses (I can think of one class right > now: Object proxies for SOAP/ XMLRPC or the like) that you will hardly > redeclare it anyway. If you start using __call on a regular basis you > should probably rethink your design :-) An iterator may want to "reflect" it's inner object/iterator methods by call. This you may cal aggregation. In other words you can use __call to emulate MI and aggregation. -- Best regards, Marcus mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
