Operator overloading is a feature being proposed for PHP 7.1 that will allow using regular operators, like +, -, *, /, to perform operations with class objects using new magic methods. That was one of the main topics discussed by Manuel Lemos and Arturs Sosins in the episode 68 of the Lately in PHP podcast hangout.

They also talked about better handling of bugs caused by using invalid string values in arithmetic operations, supporting negative string offsets in all string operations, and better handling of issues caused by the regeneration of session IDs.

They also talked about the recent victory of Dave Smith and the United States team in the PHP Innovation Award, as well the improvements to the PHP Classes site features for promoting contributing authors work suggested by these winning authors.

Listen to the podcast, or watch the hangout video to learn more about these interesting PHP topics.
