Hello, I just realized it now (I brought it up in a different manner when there was discussion about the RFC), but I didn't notice there was a totally false statement about it in the RFC itself. You probably should fix it. I'm speaking about the "Strict type checking, which is used by many popular programming languages, particularly ones which are statically-typed, such as Java, C#, Haskell, or Facebook's Hack. It is also used for non-scalar parameter type hints in PHP. With this approach, an argument is only accepted if its type is exactly the same as the parameter." paragraph. This is NOT true (at least for C# and Java), as you can read here in the documentations of respecitve languages so you should not compare the strict version of the typing implemented in PHP with other strongly typed languages, because the PHP's "strict" is stricter than strongly static typed languages. I really hope noone voted with the thought that the strict typing acts as it does in Java and C#. https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/y5b434w4.aspx http://docs.oracle.com/javase/specs/jls/se7/html/jls-5.html#jls-5.1.2 Regards Pavel Kouril -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
