You can read the last discussion about it on this thread: http://marc.info/?l=php-internals&m=119673254908065&w=2 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2008-08-23 13:28:05] j dot stutterheim at hccnet dot nl Description: ------------ Adding a string class to PHP would be greatly appreciated. It would allow for direct operations on a string: <?php $helloWorld = 'Hello World'; // Assign string 'Hello' to $hello $hello = $helloWorld->subString(0, 5); ?> Of course it would support a whole lot more string operations. See C# or Java as reference for example. It should also be compatible with the current string functions. PHP 6 would be a nice target for this feature. If for some reason it's not possible to combine this with the current approach, consider looking at Objective-C's solution. It requires an @ to be appended before the string, so it becomes a NSString instead of a regular C string. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=45898&edit=1
