I've taken my original nowdocs patch and revamped it to be much more
efficient and functional. This version:
- Parses nowdocs as constant strings rather than ADD_STRING opcodes.
- Allows the flex scanner do less work.
- Enables nowdocs to be used in static_scalar contexts, such as class
constants and static variable initializers.
- Includes more tests than before.
- Is fully compatible with the most recent CVS checkouts for HEAD and
PHP_5_2, and also merges cleanly into a 5.2.3 source tree.
- Breaks zero regression tests out of all 3000 or so.
The patch also cleans up the zend_language_scanner.l code a little
bit, cosmetically speaking, and the PHP_5_2 patch updates the scanner
by factoring out single-quoted string scanning, as HEAD already did.
The patch is available for download at <http://
phpdoc.gwynne.dyndns.org/nowdocs.zip>, and browsable at <http://
phpdoc.gwynne.dyndns.org/nowdocs/>.
