Hi Lester,
I updated the RFC. I may have missed one thing or two, but overall
idea and how code behave is there.
This question is answered on wiki RFC. =)
Here is the direct link: https://wiki.php.net/rfc/annotations
But there is nothing there that explains why this is any use where we are not
compiling code ... and are all things we are already doing with comment blocks
... which CAN be stripped to speed up operation once in a production
environment. A compiler simply strips the unnecessary stuff when building the
running code, how do you propose PHP does that ? If I want compiled code then I
can use any number of other languages, PHP simply runs what I have in the file.
Regards,

What I thought it could be changed is:
- Allow PHP to support it natively and also take advantage of opcode cache
- Make API cleaner
Guilherme you still also have to explain WHY we need this. I have a
perfectly functional documentation and hinting setup working from docblock
entries in several years worth of code. Rewriting all of that would have to
have some reason, and working with two systems in parallel does not make
sense. My current method of working is well supported in phpeclipse while
your new offering will require some major work in phpeclipse and other tools
simply to access it? More work for other open source developers who again
probably don't need it. So as far as I am concerned I need to be persuaded
why this code needs to be IN the core code when I for one can't see any
reason to use it. Just because COMPILED languages have it is not a reason to
load an interpreted language with it. Adding it as a removable extension
might make more sense to me, just as much of the less used code can be
disabled if we want. And I was coding in C/C++ long before I switched TO PHP
to get away from the problems of using compiled languages for dynamic web
based systems.
