Meanwhile, if anybody knows why the RFC isn't listed on /rfc, lemme know

:D

You have to add it manually, cf https://wiki.php.net/rfc/howto 3.4
(yeah...)

Excellent, thanks :-D

Hey y'all,

I'm closing the vote for making Reflection*#setAccessible() no-op.

The result is a unanimous 31 votes for the change to be included in PHP
8.1: I will clean up https://github.com/php/php-src/pull/5412 and get it
ready for merge :-)

@Tyson sorry, I really forgot to update the RFC with any further feedback
there, and only checked again today as per a calendar entry I created for
this.

Mi Marco Pivetta,

I'm opening the vote for making Reflection*#setAccessible().

Voting starts today (2021-06-23) and ends in 14 days (2021-07-07).

Vote at https://wiki.php.net/rfc/make-reflection-setaccessible-no-op

Discussion: https://marc.info/?l=php-internals&m=162360269505048&w=2

Discussion^2: https://externals.io/message/114841

I'm in favor of this even without adding isAccessible(),
but just to note:

https://wiki.php.net/rfc/howto mentions:

Listen to the feedback, and try to answer/resolve all questions.
Update your RFC to document all the issues and discussions.
Cover both the positive and negative arguments. Put the RFC URL into
all your replies.

1. This should probably link to the RFC discussions in a References
   section,
   not everyone who votes reads the mailing list.

2. https://externals.io/message/114841#114845 is the only thing that
   resembled an objection for a "Discussion"
   section or future scope, though

   I think that isAccessible should be added if any applications
   actually did depend on ReflectionException
   being thrown for correctness - they could throw their own exception
   if isAccessible was false.
   (e.g. for code meant to handle possibly undefined public typed
   properties by checking for initialization
   then getting the value)

   I can't actually remember needing this (anything other than
   setAccessible(true)) personally, though, since $obj->{$method}(...$args)
   could be used.
   I've only used this to access private and protected
   properties/methods.

Thanks,
Tyson
