PHP Catchable fatal error:  Argument 1 passed to MeToo::meToo() must implement interface Key, none given, called in /var/www/html/testes/interface.php on line 32 and defined in /var/www/html/testes/interface.php on line 22
PHP Stack trace:
PHP   1. {main}() /var/www/html/testes/interface.php:0
PHP   2. MeToo->meToo() /var/www/html/testes/interface.php:32

The php5 Still considers method with same class name as class constructor? Its was in php4?

I'm using php 5.6.11

RTM: http://php.net/manual/en/language.oop5.decon.php

> For backwards compatibility with PHP 3 and 4, if PHP cannot find a __construct() function for a given class, it will search for the old-style constructor function, by the name of the class. Effectively, it means that the only case that would have compatibility issues is if the class had a method named __construct() which was used for different semantics.

> Warning
> Old style constructors are DEPRECATED in PHP 7.0, and will be removed in a future version. You should always use __construct() in new code.
