It's fine as it is -> wont fix. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-02-04 11:48:17] [EMAIL PROTECTED] A NOTICE definitely is NOT sufficient. Remember many setups running older PHP software set "error_reporting = E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE", because the amount of notices on undefined array indices and undefined variables can be quite overwhelming -- and it is precisely these setups that are likely to be bitten by this problem. Redefinition of a constant should be a WARNING, I must insist. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-02-04 10:27:54] [EMAIL PROTECTED] A notice is fine, we're not going to change this as it might break scripts out there. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-02-04 10:20:52] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Good, thanks. Let me clarify - PHP does log a NOTICE such as [04-Feb-2003 17:18:22] PHP Notice: Constant T_LIST already defined in x.php on line 3 but this definitely needs to be a WARNING or even an ERROR. -Tomas ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-02-04 10:13:58] [EMAIL PROTECTED] That is a good idea, thought it did that. Assigned. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-02-04 10:09:56] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hmm. I'm convinced PHP should at least file a big fat warning upon any attempted redefinition of a reserved constant name, instead of ignoring the instruction entirely. Identifiers such as T_LIST are very often used in enums. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
