Hi,
First up, I'd like to apologise in advance if I'm mailing the wrong
place. I have done my homework before subscribing, and this looks to
be the right one, but - one never can tell...
Formalities out of the way, I've been a long-time PHP developer and
I'm sort of considering dipping my feet into things - one thing in
particular that bothers me that I'd like to consider looking at is the
inability to scope class constants, i.e:
class Foo
{
protected BAR = 5;
}
is not possible. This is perhaps not all that major, but considering
that scoping for variables and methods is supported and respected, it
seems like a rather strange omission.
Is this perhaps something that would be looked on positively? If so, I
might start trying to look into it in my spare time. (note: advice on
where to look, what not to do, etc are all very much welcome).
Thanks!
Robin Burchell
