From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Operating system: Win2k PHP version: 4.3.0 PHP Bug Type: Strings related Bug description: define constants not taking heredoc strings as value
when using define() to create constants, it all seems to work fine when using standard strings. However, under the definition for the arguments on define(), it says that the define function can take string() as an argument. looking at strings, heredoc is a valid string argument, however when trying to define a constant as follows, the constant returns a null string. define($html_header, <<<THISISSTRING the string goes here THISISSTRING ); if however you define a standard var like so: $str_header=<<<THISISSTRING the string goes here THISISSTRING ; then do: define($html_header $str_header); all works fine. -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=21956&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=21956&r=trysnapshot Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=21956&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=21956&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=21956&r=needtrace Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=21956&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=21956&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=21956&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=21956&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=21956&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=21956&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=21956&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=21956&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=21956&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=21956&r=gnused
