ID: 63471 Comment by: daniel at baz-x dot at Reported by: daniel at baz-x dot at Summary: Make properties final on runtime Status: Open Type: Feature/Change Request Package: Reflection related Operating System: Any PHP Version: 5.4.8 Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: Ah ok, but this request is not only restricted to enums. It could also be used in constructors to fill properties (especially with objects) and make them final afterwards so they can't be changed just like in java. Of what I've read on the rfc is that it seems like those enums won't behave like objects while my implementation provides methods (sorry for the bad english).

The only difficulty I got is that it's still possible to overwrite the static variables which makes the enum quite insecure. As I would like to keep it as much as it's like in java I would like to request for a reflection method to make properties final (at least for the static ones) like ReflectionProperty->setFinal().
