My original patch for return types did not allow return types for ctors, dtors, and __clone. It seems you did not preserve this? In any case no RFC is needed because this was outlined in the RFC: https://wiki.php.net/rfc/return_types#methods_which_cannot_declare_return_types The only one that should allow anything for now is __toString which would be permitted to declare a return type of string. -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
