Do you have suggestions of better uses for __get and __set, I'm always interested to hear how other people use these tools in their own projects?

The only advice I could give is: Don't try to use username as a variable name if your class is that of an animal. The username, in your example, has nothing in common with the class, what it represents or what it means. A username should be used if your class is, by example: user This might result in a problem if someone needs to read and understand your code. Try to be more clear, specific, when choosing variable and class names. Nice article!

They seem to be used in a hackish way and really undermine their real potential. Nice post overall but really bad examples for __get and __set.

I had a go at making my own magic arrays and strings recently, check it out: http://gist.github.com/419722 .. it's basically for making it easy to use array_map() and to get somewhat OO arrays and strings.

Its a bit like __toString(), but provides far more flexibility. It can be used in other cases as well, of course. As the old toString magic method accepted parameters, its also an somewhat easy way to replace it in 5.3 __invoke() is quite important, too, I think!

I have been using the __construct / __destruct for a long time, haven't thought about using the others (or even looked in to them) until now. The __get and __set may be useful in a Database class. Thanks Very clear and informative article.
