From: jevon at jevon dot org Operating system: XP SP1 PHP version: 5.0.0RC1 PHP Bug Type: Zend Engine 2 problem Bug description: No access-modified constants
Description: ------------ It doesn't appear that you can change the access modifiers on constants - are they public by default? It seems to make more sense to be able to define access modifiers on constants (since you can with every other component in classes). Consistency? Reproduce code: --------------- <?php class Foo { const a = 1; public const b = 2; private const c = 3; static function bar() { return c; } } echo Foo::a; echo Foo::b; echo Foo::c; echo Foo::bar(); ?> Expected result: ---------------- 1 2 ERROR: Cannot access a private constant 'c' 3 Actual result: -------------- Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_CONST, expecting T_VARIABLE in C:\Web\construct\php\php5test\test10.php on line 4 PHP Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_CONST, expecting T_VARIABLE in C:\Web\construct\php\php5test\test10.php on line 4 -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=27926&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (php4): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=27926&r=trysnapshot4 Try a CVS snapshot (php5): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=27926&r=trysnapshot5 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=27926&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=27926&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=27926&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=27926&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=27926&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=27926&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=27926&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=27926&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=27926&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=27926&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=27926&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=27926&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=27926&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=27926&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=27926&r=float
