I like to use techniques that have wide version applicability. Namespaces are a great feature that I look forward to leveraging, but at this time they would cause any application to become backward incompatible with any PHP version less than 5.3. As it stands I've always been particularly anal about using long class/function names using the prefix technique to prevent collision. Normally I'd kick the wheels a bit, but I haven't had a lot of time for kicking wheels lately :/ Cheers, Rob. -- http://www.interjinn.com Application and Templating Framework for PHP -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

I'd like to hear from you as I've been asked to compile a reference documenting anything/everything people may have come across (so far as namespaces go), if you have some reproduce code, all the better. rgds, Jochem I haven't tried php namespaces yet, but have implemented them for my own projects, to 1) avoid the ever enduring hassle of setting directory paths for every host where the project lives in one form or another (dev, test, production). 2) calling classes according to their logical structure, in stead of figuring out in what freaking folder I put the class. namespaceMyProjectName('db.mysql.MySqlHandler'); Nice and easy, although at a performance cost atm. probably a big performance cost. that said I'd like to hear/see some more of your implementation, could you elaborate? I'm looking forward to seeing how PHP handles it. well download an alpha of php5.3 and take a look, more testers are needed ... this is a major addition and there are plenty of edge cases (it seems) that have yet to be covered. greetz, Stijn -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Have to work through the 5.2 -> 5.3 issues first before DELIBERATELY introducing something that breaks compatibility with customer sites ;) I am aware of your situation/opinion/etc from internals mailing list, I'm interested to hear from people who have grabbed a copy of 5.3 and had a go at *trying out* the new stuff. Also I did stipulate 'play' which implies testing the new functionality, not rolling it into production codebases. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
