Parameter Type Hinting

[xtiano77]

Has anyone heard anything new about the parameter type hinting and when, if at all, is PHP going to implement it?

Currently, PHP only has support for type hinting Arrays and Object. You can implement this for regular data types by using SPL Type classes (http://php.net/manual/en/book.spl-types.php).

There is also an active RFC document here: http://wiki.php.net/rfc/typecheckingstrictandweak
