Pretend I know (basically) nothing about how PHP was implemented, because I
don't ;-)
But I don't understand why regular property updates should be affected by
this at all?
If I had to implement type-checked properties in plain PHP, I would do
something like this...
/**
* @property int $price
*/
class Product
{
private $_price;
public function __set($name, $value) {
if ($name === "price") {
if (!is_int($value)) {
throw new UnexpectedValueException("...");
}
$this->_price = $price;
return;
}
throw new RuntimeException("undefined property {$name}");
}
public function __get($name) {
return $this->{"_{$name}"};
}
}
I would have guessed an implementation of type-checked properties would
work in much the same way.
Of course, it wouldn't use "_" as a prefix for the underlying property, but
some other magic byte, much like how private properties are internally
prefixed with a magic byte, right?
This wouldn't affect the performance of untyped properties at all.
Of course typed property writes would be more expensive, but that's to be
expected.
