Hi all, Those of you with long memories will remember that I proposed a Comparable interface way back in the pre-5.4 days, but withdrew it when it became obvious that there was no consensus for it as a feature and that a vote was likely to fail.
RFC: https://wiki.php.net/rfc/comparable PR: https://github.com/php/php-src/pull/1097 Why reanimate it now, I hear you ask? I think that comparisons have only become more prominent in the language: we now have a spaceship operator for explicit comparisons, yet the behaviour of object comparisons can be obscure, to say the least, and the user has no control over how their objects are compared. At this stage, I intend to put this up for a vote on March 5 (vote ending March 12), with the obvious endgame being that this would be included in 7.0.
