It is automatic, in the meaning you don't have to do anything to get it. Realistically, how often do you override strlen? If I say "never", I probably would be close enough for all practical purposes. > My idea was to force all function lookups into the global nameespace > first by doing the declare or use.

We already have this working, why make it harder by requiring to do specific things that we know upfront 99%+ people end up doing? Why not assume them by default? -- Stas Malyshev smalys...@gmail.com -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
