What indication is there that this will be more successfull than the filter API? The filter API was our previous attempt to improve upon input handling. With this new API we have three major ways (superglobals, filter, new API) Historically PHP isn't really successful in providing higher level APIs to things and I think leaving this to userland is very viable, since composer and performance improvements in later PHP 5 and PHP 7. Also use of $_* is fast to grep for and gives me directly in the grep an idea about the mess-factor of a code base, tracing all calls to a member of an instance of a class is harder. (and yes, references etc. to super globals aren't trivial to trace, but also rare) Let PHP provide the access to the data and promote the API library of the year. johannes -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
