I'm developing software with PHP since version 2 and i'm still easily
impressed by such code. So we need get_object_constants and
get_class_constants for such fancy stuff?

Where's the good old
$flag == true; or FLAG == true;?

A bitmask class to shuffle around with class constants using reflection
of itself and a magic method get_class_constants to check a boolean flag?

I just don't get it but maybe i'm to focused to doing things the most
simple and readable/maintainable way.

Maybe, in a few years, c++ will be a beginners language compared to PHP
which gets added new shiny features every day which will only be used by
even more shiny frameworks and the most shiniest, bloated objects one
can imagine.

With every fancy feature added to PHP you kill a kitten!

I'm more with this "Give PHP and it's core developers a rest" so that
the core can be improved/cleaned up instead of adding Java features
people have seen on the university and like them but now they're forced
to use PHP which is like the opposite of Java. Java has it's good
reasons too. Just a tool. Use the tool that fits best, don't use the
hammer as a saw by adding teeth to it.

Cheers,
Frank
