We are sorry, but we can not support PHP 4 related problems anymore.
Momentum is gathering for PHP 6, and we think supporting PHP 4 will
lead to a waste of resources which we want to put into getting PHP 6
ready.

More complex classes which's properties should become protected may need to
modify / initializes some of their management properties in constructor or in
an important member method.
Imagine a central factory manager using a list of meta objects . Or a
public/private key manager class, which has to manager 3 lists, public keys,
private keys and passphrases.
If the list aren't hard-coded in each class but list objects as members are
used, a constructor like
class CertMgr
{
var $PublicKeys;
var $PrivateKeys;
function CertMgr()
{
$this->PublicKeys = & new List();
$this->PrivateKeys = & new List();
$this->PublicKeys->SetValue( "mine", "abcdefg" );
$this->PrivateKeys->SetValue( "mine", "secret-of-abcdefg" );
}
function __get( $pn, &$pv )
{
if( $this->PublicKeys->KeyExists( $pn ) )
{
$pv = $this->PublicKeys->GetValue( $pn );
return TRUE;
}
else
{
return FALSE;
}
}
} // end of class CertMgr
overload( "CertMgr" );
$myCertMgr = new CertMgr(); // will fail!
