I think it could cause confusion since int and string are value types, - literal is not a type as such, it merely describes the way the value was created. > I'm under the impression that PHP already defines these as literals Does anyone know if that is correct? Does PHP remember how the string variable / constant was created? -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
