Operating system: Irrelevant
PHP version: 5.2.9
PHP Bug Type: Feature/Change Request
Bug description: shorthand for array keryword
Description:
------------
One of the most frequently used keywords in PHP is "array".
It would be great to adopt just another construct from C/C++, namely array
constructor using curly brackets { }.
These are cases when PHP code is oversaturated with "array" word.
In this way it would be much easier to write and read PHP code.
I am aware of case #3928 and http://wiki.php.net/rfc/shortsyntaxforarrays,
but I think that curly brackets would be more suitable than square
brackets.
Noone seems to complain of how C/C++ arrays are constructed.
