Take the following for example:

/**
 * @route('/listofitems', method=['GET'])
 * @route('/item', method=['GET'], defaults={'single': true})
 */
public function getitems($single = false){

    $items = get_all_the_items();

    if($single === true)
        return array_shift($items);

    return $items;

}

This would have the $single parameter default to false and so when calling /listofitems the value of false is used. However if we call /item we are executing the same method except that the value of $single is now true.

I would like to be able to set default values for methods when using the @route annotation. This would be useful to have a single method handle multiple routes and use different values for parameters. Take the following for example: ```php /** * @route('/listofitems', method=['GET']) * @route('/item', method=['GET'], defaults={'single': true}) */ public function getitems($single = false){ $items = get_all_the_items(); if($single === true) return array_shift($items); return $items; } ``` This would have the `$single` parameter default to `false` and so when calling */listofitems* the value of false is used. However if we call */item* we are executing the same method except that the value of `$single` is now true.
