Marcus, I understand why Interfaces can't have bodies, but could you explain why Interfaces can't have properties?
Thanks, John. -----Original Message----- From: Marcus Boerger [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 29 April 2008 10:46 To: Jeremy Privett Cc: PHP Developers Mailing List Subject: Re: [PHP-DEV] Class Properties in Interfaces? Hello Jeremy, interfaces cannot have properties, nor can they have method bodies - that is the whole purpose of interfafces. We are thinking of adding traits which would allow for both but would treat inheritance differently. Until we get that you would need to provide an abstract interface to access data in the same way. marcus Tuesday, April 29, 2008, 5:31:33 AM, you wrote: > Hey list, > I was curious what everyone thought of implementing the ability to > specify class members in interfaces.
