First post here so be gentle ;-)
I've got a unique need to get the class definitions from a file. Now I
can write the string manipulation necessary to do this myself with the
help of some regex-fu but I was wondering if it wouldn't be possible to
add a method like:
array getClassDefs(string $someFileName)
Like I said, I can do it with some regex work but given the PHP engine
has to do this it'd seem like a nice addition to the core oo-functions.
This may be a case where I've got too specific a need to warrant
community interest but I'd think there might be other cases where such a
method would prove handy.
Thoughts (other than the obligatory 'p1ss-off'?

not really an internals thing - generals list is better.

Ah, token_get_all() might be what I'm after.
Thanks,
