Subject: Re: [PHP-DEV] [VOTE] Shorter Attribute Syntax Change

Hi,

Quick question.

What is the expected behaviour of:

@[Bar()];
class Foo {}

That would appear to be valid code and for the difference of a single ;
does wildly different things, assuming there is a function Bar defined
somewhere. (and only by the fact that @ doesn't suppress fatal errors does
it not cause utter confusion if Bar isn't defined)

Regards,
Chris
