You seem to be trying to alter the language to fit your code-style checker, rather than altering your code-style checker to fit the language. That seems back-to-front to me. Although there are times when having multiple ways of doing the same thing can be a benefit, each new way is a something else that has to be learned, so in my opinion they need more justification than this. > Example in the wild that could benefit from this: That code appears to be using exceptions for flow-control, which is often recommended to not do. Again, wanting to change the language to meet the needs of some code that is following a style that is discouraged doesn't seem the right way round to me. cheers Dan Ack -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
