From: victorepand at hotmail dot com Operating system: Linus PHP version: 4.4.0 PHP Bug Type: Feature/Change Request Bug description: Global keyword
Description: ------------ I wonder if the PHP designers could make it possible to apply an array of variable names to the GLOBAL keyword without using a loop. For example: function global_in_here() { $names=array("var1","var2","var3"); global array_to_variable_list($names); # what function would be used here to convert the array to a variable list? } rather than: function global_in_here() { $names=array("var1","var2","var3"); foreach($names AS $name) global $$name; } Thanks, Victor Epand, Owner Krishna Design -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=34768&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (php4): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=34768&r=trysnapshot4 Try a CVS snapshot (php5.0): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=34768&r=trysnapshot50 Try a CVS snapshot (php5.1): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=34768&r=trysnapshot51 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=34768&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=34768&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=34768&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=34768&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=34768&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=34768&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=34768&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=34768&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=34768&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=34768&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=34768&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=34768&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=34768&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=34768&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=34768&r=float No Zend Extensions: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=34768&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=34768&r=mysqlcfg
