Yes.

Did you read my standard answer?
This is dupe of bug #30453 and bug #30452

the one described in my first post?
It's been denied already.
You can easily get around this by moving "require_once
'language_manager.class.php';" into "functionCausingError".
And, if you have read the manual (php.net/oop5.autoload), you'd know
you could also get around this like this;
function __autoload($class) {
require_once strtolower($class). ".class.php";
}

Did you even read my post?
"the resolution is likely to be the same." And what 'resolution' is
that...? Won't fix? What am I supposed to do with a pre-compiled answer
like that, if you give me one of those standard answers at least have
the courtesy to read my post in its entirety. Not just the first line.
What would be a better place for me to post a request for change like
the one described in my first post?
Thanks,
Paul

Please do not submit the same bug more than once. An existing
bug report already describes this very problem. Even if you feel
that your issue is somewhat different, the resolution is likely
to be the same.
Thank you for your interest in PHP.

Description:
------------
I have seen 2 reports (#30452 & #30453) that seem similar to this bug.
Both of them were closed with the message 'Won't fix'. I don't think
this is fair, it is a bug and it should be fixed because it seriously
limits the OOP capabilities of PHP5. I included a feasible real-world
example that shows why this bug should be fixed (I tried to make it as
short as possible).
Running index.php will cause a Fatal Error because Manager could not be
found in language_manager.class.php on line 6. This happens because
Manager is declared after LanguageManager is declared, even though
(visually) manager.class.php is included before
language_manager.class.php. The strange thing is, when Manager doesn't
implement the interface Whatever, everything is fine!
If it works without an interface it should work with an interface as
well.
Thanks for the time and effort you guys spend on making a great
programming language. I know it's free, so I am not going to demand a
fix :-), I'll just say 'pretty please' instead ;-).
Thanks,
Paul
Reproduce code:
---------------
index.php
<?php
// We require this file because we plan to use a manager object in
here.
require_once 'manager.class.php';
?>
manager.class.php
<?php
// Manager implements Whatever.
require_once 'whatever.class.php';
// Manager uses LanguageManager to translate errors.
require_once 'language_manager.class.php';
class Manager implements Whatever
{
public function functionCausingError()
{
// LanguageManager is used to translate an error caused in this
function.
$languageManager = new LanguageManager();
}
}
?>
language_manager.class.php
<?php
// LanguageManager extends Manager.
require_once 'manager.class.php';
class LanguageManager extends Manager
{
}
?>
whatever.class.php
<?php
interface Whatever
{
}
?>
Expected result:
----------------
No output
Actual result:
--------------
Fatal error: Class 'Manager' not found in C:\Web Server\Web
Root\sandbox\bug\language_manager.class.php on line 6
