From: Operating system: all PHP version: Irrelevant Package: *Programming Data Structures Bug Type: Feature/Change Request Bug description:Modify ternary operator request
Description: ------------ There is a need for another operator, which would reduce the code dramatically. Be sure there are situations when stupid testing for validity get load of code, so i suggest modify ternary operator ( expression ? true : false ) to next variant: $foo = "hello"; $bar = "world"; $output = $foo ? $bar; $output is "hello"; $foo = null (0, false, etc); $bar = "world"; $output is "world"; Test script: --------------- $foo = false; $bar = "foo"; echo $foo ? "bar"; echo $bar ? "bar"; Expected result: ---------------- bar foo -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=52148&edit=1 -- Try a snapshot (PHP 5.2): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=52148&r=trysnapshot52 Try a snapshot (PHP 5.3): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=52148&r=trysnapshot53 Try a snapshot (trunk): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=52148&r=trysnapshottrunk Fixed in SVN: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=52148&r=fixed Fixed in SVN and need be documented: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=52148&r=needdocs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=52148&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=52148&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=52148&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=52148&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=52148&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=52148&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=52148&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=52148&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=52148&r=globals PHP 4 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=52148&r=php4 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=52148&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=52148&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=52148&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=52148&r=float No Zend Extensions: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=52148&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=52148&r=mysqlcfg
