PHP version: 5.0.0RC1
PHP Bug Type: *General Issues
Bug description: const's in classes are no longer recognized, define works again in
classes
Description:
------------
I have been using the const in classes since the change from define, this
change seems to be reverted in RC1?
Since it doesn't recognize the constants, using define in the constructor
it works again, but I hope this is not the final behaviour.
Reproduce code:
---------------
class bleh {
const MYCONST = "hello world";
public function printMyConst(){
// doesn't work in RC1
print(MYCONST);
}
}
adding:
public function __construct(){
define("MYCONST", "hello world");
}
fixes it.
Expected result:
----------------
I hope const will be the default behaviour for php5, not reverting to the
deprecated php4 define method
Actual result:
--------------
Use of undefined constant ...
