Hi (Marcus), unfortunately I'm not very happy with the direction OO strictness takes in PHP. I'm sure I'm not alone and many people second this feeling.
Precisely, let's have a look at the following: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/build/php-5.2-debug$ cli -d"error_reporting=8191" -r 'class c{function f(){}} class d extends c{function f($a){}}' Strict Standards: Declaration of d::f() should be compatible with that of c::f() in Command line code on line 1 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/build/php-unicode-debug$ cli -d"error_reporting=8191" -r 'class c{function f(){}} class d extends c{function f($a){}}' Fatal error: Declaration of d::f() must be compatible with that of c::f() in Command line code on line 1 I *really* think that this enforcements are no good idea and I _beg_ you that we leave this "area" to interfaces.
