Chiming in to express my disappointment that `final` wasn't a voting choice.
1. It's already reserved, so we don't have to worry about a new keyword. 2. Another very popular language that is similar to PHP already uses it (Java). I voted no for a variety of reasons, which includes: - It doesn't support default values, and doesn't defend that choice well in my opinion. - I think clone should be able to change the value. It's similar to a constructor, and in fact I'd call it a "copy constructor." - The property type is mandatory. I am less certain about this, but do not like it. I do appreciate the RFC, but think it needs a bit more work. -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
