Description

From manual page: https://php.net/language.namespaces.importing

---The examples shown do not work unless the php file that contains the references is 'required' is also loaded. Why is there no mention of this? Just running the examples always gives me "Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Class 'My\Own\Classname' not found in..... on line nnn
Regards, Winand Beke
