If you ask me, scaler type hinting should try to do some auto-conversion. That way, the type hints would actually be useful.

PS: Congrats on rolling out PHP 5.2.0. I sincerely (without sarcasm) hope the manual will be updated soon (e.g. filter extension is still marked experimental and datetime classes have not been documented at all).

Hello all!

Attached is a patch (against 5_2) to allow scalar type hinting \o/

I realize that maaany will be against it so I won't be pushing it (a lot), just wanted the patch archived somewhere :)

-1 unless we add a "strongly typed" mode in php and allow scalar type hinting only in this mode. But thinking about php raising errors when I pass string("1") instead of int(1 )is not really what I consisder as a nice addition :)
