From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Operating system: Red Hat Linux 7.2 PHP version: 4.2.2 PHP Bug Type: Documentation problem Bug description: function only accepts scalars or constants as default values
Could you add to the docs in the section on functions and default argument values that default values can only be scalers or constants? these won't work: 1- function a ($b = $val) {} 2- function b ($a = another_function()) {} This link offers some workarounds, eventhough it would be really nice to be able to do #2, don't you think ;) http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=php-general&m=91877248424055& -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=19252&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=19252&r=trysnapshot Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=19252&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=19252&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=19252&r=needtrace Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=19252&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=19252&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=19252&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=19252&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=19252&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=19252&r=globals -- PHP Documentation Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
