That seems a bit of a strong reaction, though I agree that this can be
solved fairly easily in user-land:
trait ArrayKey {
public function key(): string {
return get_class($this) . '::' . $this->name;
}
}
enum T { use ArrayKey; case A; case B; }
echo T::A->key();
// outputs: T::A
or even set it up in the constructor.
If you don't have control over the enums, you can write a simple
function to the same. As a side-note, I would rather have enums able
to be casted to a string than to change how arrays work. Even if it
has to be something 'ugly' to keep people from using that itself as a
value (similar to how js symbol types work -- a one-way cast).
