ID: 15241 Updated by: hholzgra@php.net Reported By: flying@dom.natm.ru -Status: Open +Status: Analyzed Bug Type: Scripting Engine problem Operating System: all PHP Version: 4.1.1 -Assigned To: +Assigned To: hholzgra New Comment: yet another locale dependant ZE bug only affecting non-latin locales (like cyrillic) for now either use lowercase constants or setlocale(LC_ALL, "C") Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-01-27 06:46:32] flying@dom.natm.ru Check out these simple examples: Example 1: ----------------------------------------------------- <?php function getCode() { return("echo 'hello world!';"); }; eval(getCode()); ?> ----------------------------------------------------- Result of executing whis example will be a string 'hello world!' as expected. Example 2: ----------------------------------------------------- <?php define('PHP_CODE','getCode()'); function getCode() { return("echo 'hello world!';"); }; eval(PHP_CODE); ?> ----------------------------------------------------- As you can see - i just move code from eval() into constant and substitute it with constant name instead of actual code into eval() statement. But result of executing this example is: Parse error: parse error in test.php(9) : eval()'d code on line 1 Tested with both 4.0.6 and 4.1.1 on windows 2000 and linux. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=15241&edit=1
