From: samuel dot hapak at gmail dot com Operating system: Debian PHP version: 5.2.11 PHP Bug Type: Feature/Change Request Bug description: No way to break long strings when declaring class constant
Description: ------------ Consider following example: class Example { const LONG_SENTENCE = "This sentence is really very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very long"; }; It is not possible to breakup the assigned string using dot operator, and php also doesn't support neither c-like constant string concatenation ("really " "very" -> "really very") or c-like line continuation (end the line with backslash). This is really annoying, cause I end with the code containing extra long lines and I can't split them, making code unreadable without scrolling. -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=50113&edit=1 -- Try a snapshot (PHP 5.2): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50113&r=trysnapshot52 Try a snapshot (PHP 5.3): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50113&r=trysnapshot53 Try a snapshot (PHP 6.0): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50113&r=trysnapshot60 Fixed in SVN: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50113&r=fixed Fixed in SVN and need be documented: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50113&r=needdocs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50113&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50113&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50113&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50113&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50113&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50113&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50113&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50113&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50113&r=globals PHP 4 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50113&r=php4 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50113&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50113&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50113&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50113&r=float No Zend Extensions: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50113&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50113&r=mysqlcfg
