Re: [PHP-DEV] [RFC] Treat namespaced names as single token, relax reserved keyword restrictions

New to the discussion and being this deep; so, apologies for any bumps. Mainly questions. Does this only affect the string after the “namespace” keyword (make implicit explicit)? So, things like “use” with a stack of classes within a base namespace would still be possible? On reserved words,

Re: [PHP-DEV] [RFC] Treat namespaced names as single token, relax reserved keyword restrictions

Hi Nikita What happens to the attributes syntax if this RFC doesn't pass? Furthermore, I think voting against this RFC to prevent the @@ syntax from happening is an abuse of the system. If there are problems with the attribute syntax, than the vote results on that one should be called void and

Hi, The following part of the proposal is problematic: Allow keywords in definition of classes, functions, const, etc. class KEYWORD {} interface KEYWORD {} trait KEYWORD {} function KEYWORD() {} const KEYWORD = 0; use Foo as KEYWORD; Under your proposal, the following code will compile without

Re: [PHP-DEV] [RFC] Treat namespaced names as single token, relax reserved keyword restrictions

What other language allows this? None that I can think of. Do we want PHP doing something it's most closely related languages do not allow? Why don't they allow this? What problems are we creating by allowing this? I can imagine this would make autoloading functions and constants by namespace
