Hi! > If it could return `string`, that'd be super useful!
Would it? There's no class "string". So for all purposes other than printing out, that would be a pretty big footgun. > We have tons of lines of code that look like: is_object($foo) ? > get_class($foo) : gettype($foo) > Getting rid of them would be very sweet ! It could be useful to have generic function for describing objects, but that's not what ::class should be doing. It should not return things which aren't classes. -- Stas Malyshev smalys...@gmail.com -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
