 ===== Proposal ===== ===== Proposal =====
  
-This RFC proposes that it shall be legal to use the FCC syntax in constant expressions.+This RFC proposes that it shall be legal to use the FCC syntax in constant expressions. The semantics match the existing semantics of FCCs and of constant expressions. Aside from the obvious, this means: 
 + 
 +  * If a referenced class does not yet exist, the autoloader is triggered, as with <php>new</php>-expressions in constant expressions. 
 +  * If a relative reference to a free-standing function is used in a namespaced context, the function will first be looked up within the namespace, falling back to the global namespace if it does not exist.

This means that FCC in property default values //may// reference <php>private</php> methods of the class where they are defined, similarly to how a FCC defined in the constructor and stored in a property may access those <php>private</php> methods. Likewise are FCC in attribute parameters allowed to access <php>private</php> methods of the surrounding class.

 ==== To Opcache ==== ==== To Opcache ====
  
-tbd+The current implementation uses a special AST structure to cache the resolved function for consistent behavior of the global function fallback. To correctly cache this AST structure, Opcache changes are required. The PR passes all tests both with and without JIT enabled.
