Take a look at Smalltalk or CLOS to see what I mean.
Hey, anytime the OO purists designing the PHP OO language want to abandon Java concepts and head for Lisp or even Smalltalk, I'm all for it :-) :-) :-) PHP's Java-like OOP and dynamicity *are* at odds -- All the requirements of declaring things up front are simply not dynamic in nature. Some folks like it that way ; Some don't. The guys doing all the work like it that way, so there ya go. [shrug] My simple solution to this problem has been to largely ignore PHP OOP :-) -- Like Music? http://l-i-e.com/artists.htm -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
