To me this feature makes no sense. But if people find use for it and it remains in Reflection, I won't object to it, so +0.
It should only be used for meta programming, of course ;-)
If an internal class can't behave well without a constructor call, that should already be fixed/prevented, as it's already possible by extending it.
I second that emotion but as long as those internal classes are not fixed I think it makes sense to disallow creating objects of internal classes without invoking their constructor. -- Sebastian Bergmann Co-Founder and Principal Consultant http://sebastian-bergmann.de/ http://thePHP.cc/ -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
