Do you mean to allow object as indices with this default implementation? But this implementataion cannot be overloaded? I fail to see the needs of such things in 5.x (or 6.x even with overload). Adding another magic method __toHash is also not what I would like. Adding a function hash_from_object() or spl_hash_from object() to ease the generations of hashes is indeed a good idea. There is no impact in the objects managements and people are free to use it or not (no magic default behaviors). --Pierre -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
