Subject: Re: [PHP-DEV] [RFC] Scalar Type Hints
From: mails@thomasbley.de ("Thomas Bley")

thanks for the rfc! Currently we allow:

function test(Array $o){}
test([]);
function test2(array $o){}
test2([]);

So I propose to allow also uppercase type names:
ublic function __construct(String $name, Int $age, Float $cuteness, Bool $evil) {

Regards
Thomas
