Serialization of 'Closure' is not allowed

[thomas-alrek]

Thank you for this cool helper. I was testing it out, and got the following error when testing.

$test = function () {
    return true;
};

tinker($test);

Also, would it be possible to add support for tinker($this) when in a class context?

Unfortunately, it is only possible to send data to tinkerwell that can be serialized - which is not easily possible with closures. When in a class context, it will work as long as the class itself can be serialized, even though I'm not sure about that, since it would have the variable name $this , which PHP might not like
