Hi, Anthony At first, thanks for your great work! As I have to learn C and C++ from scratch it was quite a good help to have someone like you pushing it forwards. I like having the casting exactly in the definition of the function, even if it just saves the 6 characters. You have all information

To be honest, I'm not as sold on this version (I built it as a POC, but to see how useful it is). It feels like it's not doing enough. All it really does is save 6 characters. Personally, I think it saves much more characters (,,,in the documentation). And I think, that's enough. Nothing

[PHP-DEV] Git Migration: Status Update

2012-03-03 Thread David Soria Parra
Hi Internals, with 5.4. out of the door, we can start thinking about moving the php-src repository to git. Commit access to the php-src SVN repository will be disabled on March 15. I will run the final migration on that date and push the php repository to git.php.net. Updates: (1) Pull

Thanks for the update! Quick question: As far as the branching model goes, are we going to stick with the SVN-style of just having a branch for each release version and dumping all the commits directly onto it, or do you plan on switching to a more modern Git-style branching model of merging

Lol well personally I disagree. I was super-stoked when the RFC process was introduced and I would LOVE to see us make more use of it! Not only does it help get a clearer guage of vote totals, but it also forces proposals to be more explicit and well-thought-out IMHO. Of course that's only my

Hmm yeah that's a good point. I guess the RFC would be to document what the procedure is; and, if there's not a procedure, then to establish one for consistency. I'm all for meritocracy for OOP project admins but if there's no established process for determining who goes into that inner circle I

Yeah your argument makes sense. The lack of process still makes me uneasy, but you shouldn't take that too seriously. I just tend to be very neurotic about this sorta thing. So don't let my apprehensive face-twitching about it bother ya too much lol. =) --Kris 2012/3/3 Johannes Schlüter

Hi! Well, as you know that was part of my original proposal ( https://wiki.php.net/rfc/object_cast_magic ). However, after talking with a few core devs about it, it seemed that separate methods are the preferred solution, as the single method requires a big switch (which isn't as clean, and
