I'm afraid you misunderstand how namespaces work. As I explained
numerous times, namespaces are file-local, and this when including
file, it does not matter a bit what was including context.
I think Marcus is talking about files that are included that do not
specify a namespace explicitly. In this situation the context does
matter.
We do not know if the developer in question is aware that the
context would matter in this case. Actually like I said in a
previous email it would be nice to at least not throw a warning if
the file that is included specifies an explicit namespace (I assume
that is possible?). Maybe adding a new "include" is a solution. This
way developers can say explicitly what they want to do without
having to suppress the warning. Then again quickly some smartass
developer is going to teach people that these annoying warnings go
away if you just use this new include everywhere. Then again, I am
not sure if I even have my head wrapped around this entire namespace
thing.
So one more thing. If people either explicitly require all their files
up front or make use of a properly designed autoload scheme, they will
side step this problem. So maybe the solution indeed is to have this
warning with a link to guidelines on how to do this properly. With
explicit "upfront" requires and autoload, there is no need to have
includes inside classes, except for the scenario of a template engine.
Not sure about that one ..
