I suppose your cast is a conversion. Otherwise it is not needed at all because PHP has no types.

For example: $circle = (Circle) ShapeFactory::createShape('circle'); $circle->radius = 10; echo $circle->getArea(); It would be great if this feature could be added to 5.5 :) __ Raymond Irving -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
