> Can you expand a bit more on your use-case? Here are some things I've deliberately used dynamic properties for:
- development proxies (production uses compiled proxies) for remote objects [can use attribute or magic functions] - visitor pattern when hacking on parser packages [in PHP 9, "hacking" will be more complex if underlying package doesn't support dynamic properties] - "tagging" objects [can use weak maps now] - deserialization of user-submitted types to a base class [can just 'decorate' a stdClass] In brackets, I listed the 'solution' for avoiding dynamic properties, but FWIW, having dynamic properties available made it far easier to create 'POC-style' code that could be refactored/rewritten. I personally never saw a bug resulting from dynamic properties, but I might have just been lucky. -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: https://www.php.net/unsub.php
