What would be useful methods contained in the base class?
Thanks.

Subject: RE: [PHP-DEV] stdClass
Hi,
Please can some explain to me what the stdClass is used for in
PHP 5. I've tried to use the reflection API to reverse engineer it
but it does not give you much on the stdClass
No. There is no such thing as Java's base class built into PHP.
stdClass is just an empty "dummy class" that is used internally, for
example if you cast an array to an object. You can also use
stdClass if
you need an object of no particular class.
Just one thing to add:
It has been also available in PHP4.
Stephan
