Comparison operator overloading in php

Question

Is it possible to overload the ==/!= operators in php, similar to the way it\'s done in .NET?

Answer 1

Just for reference (as this identical question has been asked several times today), nikic has just posted details of a Comparable interface that overloads comparison operators for objects - https://github.com/nikic/comparable

Answer 2

No, unfortunately you can't. You should create a class or member function.

Edit : oh, didn't know about this PECL package ! I should try it. :)
