Good evening,

Parameter type hints for PHP’s scalar types are a long-requested feature for 
PHP. Today I am proposing an RFC which is a new attempt to add them to the 
language. It is my hope that we can finally get this done for PHP 7.

I’d like to thank Dmitry, who emailed me and gave me some feedback on the draft 
RFC and some improvements to the patch. He encouraged me to put this to 
internals sooner rather than later, as it’s a feature many people are hoping 
will be in PHP 7.

The new RFC can be found here: https://wiki.php.net/rfc/scalar_type_hints

As well as the RFC, there is a working Zend Engine III patch with tests, and an 
incomplete specification patch.

Please read the RFC (and specification patch, if you wish) and tell me your 
thoughts.

Thanks!
