I'm sorry, but I still don't follow. For the writer of a library, he is always guaranteed to get the types he wants (declared in typehints) and therefore checking inside the method doesn't really make any sense. Or are you saying that developers would use checks inside of methods instead of typehints, even if the RFC passed in its current state with the declare() statement? -- Pavel Kouril -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
