This reverts commit 10317527e4.
this breaks user code which exceeds stack limits in legitimate
circumstances. For example, it should be OK to add 6000x diamond to a
player's inventory without being forced to manually split the count up
for addItem().
this isn't cached anymore, and would be a performance drag.
It would be nice to have some kind of fast path for this, but comparing NBT binary isn't it.
This is better for performance because these then don't need to be reevaluated every time they are called.
When encountering an unqualified function or constant reference, PHP will first try to locate a symbol in the current namespace by that name, and then fall back to the global namespace.
This short-circuits the check, which has substantial performance effects in some cases - in particular, ord(), chr() and strlen() show ~1500x faster calls when they are fully qualified.
However, this doesn't mean that PM is getting a massive amount faster. In real world terms, this translates to about 10-15% performance improvement.
But before anyone gets excited, you should know that the CodeOptimizer in the PreProcessor repo has been applying fully-qualified symbol optimizations to Jenkins builds for years, which is one of the reasons why Jenkins builds have better performance than home-built or source installations.
We're choosing to do this for the sake of future SafePHP integration and also to be able to get rid of the buggy CodeOptimizer, so that phar and source are more consistent.
long overdue... this isn't quite as extensible as the original api3/blocks system was, but this is primarily intended to replace Item->useOn(). If plugins want to use it it can be extended later on.
This is necessary because the stupid client constantly spams right-click actions if you carry on trying to eat/throw/whatever the item when cooldown is in effect. Therefore ender pearls would be fired like machine guns without these checks server side.
This allows retrieving the name of an item without the custom name being plastered over the top. This will also allow weird things to have special functions for their names.
It's only now used in the Durable class, so it does not make sense to keep it in Item anymore. This is a leftover from the days where Durable did not exist.
