Hello internals,

I'm doing the Cairo C API extension.
Also there is a wrapper written in php for the OOP side( example:
https://github.com/gtkphp/gtkphp/blob/main/lib/Cairo/Context.php)

So far, so good.

Now let's do the same thing with Gtk,
(https://github.com/gtkphp/gtkphp/blob/main/lib/Gtk/Widget.php#L7)
Luckily I can *store zend_function* pointer in the GtkWidgetClass*( C-like
OOP)

Finally, I do the same thing for GHashTable( C API + php OOP)
But now I need to *use a global zend_array/hash to store the overridden
methods*
for the same reasons as https://github.com/php/php-src/pull/7695


I think it is better( more generic, simple to understand) to *overload the
zend_class_entry* .

Do you think this is a good idea?
Is this possible ?
Do you have a solution for me?

Best regards,
