I want to improve my php5 codebase and make it ready for php7. alas, for code that I want to run on a php5 interpreter, I would like to do the C preprocessor equivalent of
#define int
#define float
#define string
#define bool
and perhaps
#define array
so that
function(int $x) {...}
is seen by php5 to be the same as
function($x) {...}
it would also clarify the meaning of my code to me, even if it does not trigger anything in the interpreter itself.
is this possible?
