And how will it be in PHP5 ?
[/snip]

PHP5 will be using the Zend 2 Engine, and gives a standard way of
declaring constructor methods by calling them by the name __construct().


An example from http://www.php.net/zend-engine-2.php

<?php
class BaseClass {
function __construct() {
print "In BaseClass constructor\n";
}
}

class SubClass extends BaseClass {
function __construct() {
parent::__construct();
print "In SubClass constructor\n";
}
}

$obj = new BaseClass();
$obj = new SubClass();
?>

True destructors will also be available, as should be true private
methods.
