[PHP-DEV] Allow "static" type

Hi all, I would like to know your opinion about using "static" as type-hint similar to "self" and how simple / complex it would be to implement. Example - using static: https://3v4l.org/XqDma class Base { public static function test(static $obj) : static { echo get_class($obj) .

Re: [PHP-DEV][RFC][VOTE] Throwable error code's type generalization

Closing this. Thanks to the voters! Markus: sorry if i didn't answer, i didn't get the notification. I realize now it wasn't really clear. Patch would've changed Error and Exception constructors only, from int to "mixed". And someone else would have had to write it, because I have no internals

Re: [PHP-DEV] Not autoloading functions

Importing functions from a static class would equally require to have all functions in the same file. I was proposing an alternative to that, not "symbol to file" autoloading. Though, I know that problem well, sadly. I've suggested PHP should just deprecate the fallback to root namespace, and

Re: [PHP-DEV] Not autoloading functions

An alternative (which I haven't properly developed yet). Thoughts? ``` define_autoload(AUTOLOAD_NS, function($ns){ if($ns === '\A\B\C'){ echo "LOADING ABC\n"; require(__DIR__ . $ns . '\functions_and_constants.php'); } }); define_autoload(AUTOLOAD_NS, function($ns){
