No, only that no compromise has been reached on annotation support.

Thank you for the link. That is actually pretty much what I intended
to do. The only difference with my own version lies in the possibility
to annotate method parameters (very useful in many cases when using an
IoC/DI container). So that would be my 2 cents there.


I haven't read the RFC, but what you suggested in your earlier email
looked good to me, and I like the idea, so I'd be in favour of doing
something. (I'm new here, too, and not a core dev or anything, so my
opinion doesn't and shouldn't carry much weight, but there it is.)

Ben.

Are you saying there wont be annotations in PHP? Is there any way to
contribute to make this feature accepted and available?

The main concern with the proposals above were:

1) the syntax

2) how to represent the data (i.e. objects)

3) if objects, when to instanciate them, when reflecting, once?

I don't believe the patch was anywhere near an accepted state back then,
sadly.

I made the patch because it's a feature I wanted from a long time now,
and didn't find anything done about it. Do you know if this rfc is
going to be approved?

Thanks again for your quick reply,

In my oppinion, it does not make sense to implement countable for this
use. Countable should be implemented on classes where calling count() on
them is not ambiguous, i.e. the size of a collection.

There is no reason why count() on a file should be the number of lines,
why not words, or bytes?

I'd however be happy with a new countLines() method.

Hi,

it has already been discussed with length. Please take a look at:

http://wiki.php.net/rfc/annotations

it would be more productive if you explain in what ways your proposal
differs from the one above, and why that should be so.

[PHP-DEV] native php annotations

[Marcelo Gornstein]

Hello All,

I'm new to this list, so please excuse me if this subject was already
discussed, or proposed.

I've made an experimental patch to ZendEngine/PHP (5.3.5) to allow
native annotations (without doc comments), using the token @@ (the @
was already taken). It allows 0 or more annotations (with 0 or more
arguments each one) for classes, properties, methods, and arguments
for methods, like:

@@Annotation(key="value1")
class A {
@@Annotation(key="value1")
private $property;

@@Annotation(key="value1")
private function aMethod(@@Annotation(key="value1") @@Annotation2 $a, $b) {
...
}
}

The patch can be found at: https://github.com/marcelog/AnoForPHP.

The annotations and their optional arguments can be retrieved via the
getAnnotations() method of ReflectionClass, ReflectionMethod,
ReflectionParameter, and ReflectionProperty.

I plan to extend this patch with some extended functionality, like
having PHP instantiate a given class for the given annotation. By
using convention instead of configuration, the name of the annotation
is the name of the class, which should also extend some PHP base
class, like "Annotation".

I'm basically looking for comments on the patch and the functionality,
since I'm new to the ZendEngine as well.

Again, I'm sorry if this post should not go here or there is not
interest in such a feature in the language itself. Also, if I missed
something in the code of the patch, because it's more like a
proof-of-concept than a final formal proposal.

Regards!
