PHP Bug Type: Unknown/Other Function
Bug description: Parse error if using server variables as default function argument
value
Description:
------------
Is there some reason why a $_GET or other server variable cannot be
included directly within a function declaration, as its default value?
If using the reproduce code below I get a parse error:
Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_VARIABLE in [scriptaddress] on line
[linenumber]
Reproduce code:
---------------
function queryParameters ($queryString = $_GET['QUERY_STRING'])
{
# Do something with $queryString
}
