Hello!
It would be nice if in PHP 6 using constant parameters for functions and
methods would be possible. This feature is e.g. available in Java.
function doSth (const A) {
if (defined (A)) echo A is a constant;
}
doSth (foo);
Cheers,
Jay

Hi,
I think it's a great possibility too, specially when dealing with 3rd
party components.
If you have an interface in your application to be implemented by
others, you can notice them about the constant argument (and should
NOT be redefined) and throw a fatal error (altho I still do not
$db = new DBConnection($properties);
// Notice, still not connected to DB
$third_party_obj-foo($db);
$db-connect();
In the requested feature, the protection is in the wrong hands (that
of the third party object).
You're much better off changing your call to:
$third_party_obj-foo(clone $db);

Why? Because $db should be a constant and could not be modified.
Allowing this, the 3rd party component could redefine some important
properties inside of your object and may cause unbelievable issues in
your appplication.
This makes it sound like you let other people
