i meant a function like this:
in a globally included file on a server far, far away
function debugme ($obj, $mode = 'echo')
{
$obj_class = 'Class: '. get_class($obj);
$obj_class.= 'non static properties: '. count($obj);
if ($mode == 'echo') {
echo $obj_class;
} else {
return $obj_class;
}
}

won't debugme be available to all functions/methods?

btw, can't that be done in c++?
