That article explains in detail how the problem is handled in other languages. And traits can still result in conflicts that look pretty darned similar to the diamond problem, which result in a fatal error. So I think your question is still a good one. Nevertheless, I'm glad we've got another way to reduce the amount of boilerplate in our classes. _______________________________________________ New York PHP User Group Community Talk Mailing List http://lists.nyphp.org/mailman/listinfo/talk http://www.nyphp.org/show-participation
