Is there a way that you'd suggest? First of all, TIL some cool things about "(array) $foo" and how VarDumper uses that, so thank you! Secondly, I believe the casting syntax is the best user experience and would be a good addition to the language, so is there any other way at all to maintain something like VarDumper's functionality without using the casting syntax? I'd like to find a way to not distrupt too much of what's out there, while also adding value to the end user. -- Steven Wade stevenwad...@gmail.com -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
