Bug description:Localised namespace importing within codeblocks
Description:
------------
It would be nice to important an entire namespace into global space, but
only for
a controlled section of code
Test script:
---------------
/* desktop.php */
<?php
namespace desktop;
class Window{...}
class Icon{...}
class Button{...}
?>
/* index.php */
<?php
require 'desktop.php';
global_function();
{
use desktop;
$window1=new Window();
$window2=new Window();
$button1=new Button();
}
more_global_functions();
?>
Expected result:
----------------
Whilst in the codeblock the namespace is available as if it were global,
but once
outside it is no longer globally available. The global namespace should be
unaffected afterwards
Actual result:
--------------
currently namespaces cannot be imported entirely under the justification
that it
will pollute the global namespace. I believe that if only done for
controlled
regions of code this can be avoided & code can be more cleanly written
