Bug description: PHP 5 should treat 'var' as 'public'
Description:
------------
I am amazed that PHP5 does not treat 'var' as if it was the same
'public'.
I am so sick of trying to maintain two sets of code for PHP4 and PHP5 all
because PHP4 uses 'var' in my classes and PHP5 wants 'public', 'private'
or 'protected'
I would love to see 'var' be treated an alias for 'public'
Reproduce code:
---------------
class test
{
var $info;
function test( $info )
{
$this->info = $info;
}
}
Expected result:
----------------
This should be the same as:
class test
{
public $info;
function test( $info )
{
$this->info = $info;
}
}
Actual result:
--------------
error/exception is thrown
