Add support for method calls on primitive types in PHP
|
|
|
|
This extension implements the ability to register a class that handles the
|
|
method calls to a certain primitive type (string, array, ...). As such it
|
|
allows implementing APIs like $str->length().
|
|
|
|
The main purpose of this repo is to provide a proof of concept implementation
|
|
that can be used to design the new APIs. The switch to object syntax for
|
|
operations on primitive types is a unique opportunity for PHP to redesign many
|
|
of its inconsistent core APIs. This repo provides the means to quickly
|
|
prototype and test new APIs as userland code. Once the APIs are figured out it
|
|
will be proposed for inclusion into PHP.
|
|
|
|
Note: The ability to register type handlers from userland is just for
|
|
prototyping.
