This should be corrected/changed. myObject->unset() should not conflict with unset() Examples: <?php class unsetTest{ function unset($whatever){ } } //Parse error: syntax error, unexpected 'unset' (T_UNSET), expecting identifier (T_STRING) in E:\_www\x.php on line # ============================================== <?php namespace whatever; class unsetTest{ function unset($whatever){ } } //Parse error: syntax error, unexpected 'unset' (T_UNSET), expecting identifier (T_STRING) in E:\_www\x.php on line # Test script: --------------- <?php class unsetTest{ function unset($whatever){ } } Expected result: ---------------- A happy function in my class that will do what it is told. Actual result: -------------- //Parse error: syntax error, unexpected 'unset' (T_UNSET), expecting identifier (T_STRING) in E:\_www\x.php on line # Seemingly conflicting with the native PHP unset. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=60304&edit=1
