Re: Object Support: msg#00007

Subject: Re: Object Support
FYI, this is a known topic in the Smarty 3 discussions. The syntax separation was a necessity with the Smarty 2.X engine, but this will very likely be addressed in the Smarty 3 template syntax.

are there currently any plans to simplify and extend Smartys support for accessing objects? What I want to see is:

Function: {object.method}


I posted a patch to this list on Jul 21, 2005 (subject: "smarty custom functions namespaces") to do the above, but using '::' rather than '.'


Yes, found this after posting.

The patch wasn't greeted with much enthusiasm.


This is maybe because you try to introduce ':' as another syntax element.

I don't like this as I don't like {object->method} and {$object->property} inside templates. The template designer should not have to know whether a placeholder is originally an array, object or whatever.
