Even knowing the class you are calling, and assuming the common convention of one file per class, you may not know in which file is it implemented. It's annoying to go into the class, find out it's not there, grep the parent class, and having to repeat the process three or four levels up. Whereas with a unique enough name, grepping the functions get all the possible implementations. Plus, it's not always easy to know in which class to look something :-) function baz( $param ) { $param->morlocks(); } -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
