<para>
The purpose of this extension is to allow overloading of object
property access and method calls. Only one function is defined
in this extension, <function>overload</function> which
takes the name of the class that should have this functionality
enabled. The class named has to define appropriate methods if
it wants to have this functionality: <literal>__get()</literal>,
<literal>__set()</literal> and <literal>__call()</literal>
respectively for getting/setting a property, or calling a method.
This way overloading can be selective. Inside these handler
functions the overloading is disabled so you can access object
properties normally.

This extension is not a part of PHP 5. PHP 5 supports <literal>__get()</literal>, <literal>__set()</literal> and
<literal>__call()</literal> natively. See the <link
linkend="language.oop5.overloading">Overloading in PHP 5</link> page
for more information.
