On the contrary, plenty of implementations means there's a need in this functionality, and it might be a good idea to have one standard implementation if it can cover like 80% of use cases. > > Whatever you decide on in terms of syntax, most likely won't satisfy every > the needs of every userland annotation library, so at least some of them > most likely won't use it.

Since when "it does not satisfy all needs of all users, and some of them may end up not using it" is an argument for not including functionality?

Real annotation syntax Can we please not hijack the topic? We discussed annotations many times already, if you have better proposal than current RFCs please create your own RFC (or ask one of the current RFC authors for collaboration) and start a new topic -- Stanislav Malyshev, Software Architect SugarCRM: http://www.sugarcrm.com/ (408)454-6900 ext. 227 -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
