Description:
------------
In using inline functions that return arrays, please make php capable
of using values stored at particular indexes. For example,
$class->function_call()[index] or ($class->function_call())[index].
Basically, the same use as other langauges.
Thank you for your time.
Sincerely,
Scott B Britton
Reproduce code:
---------------
class test {
private $scott = array("Scott", "B", "Britton");
public function return_scott() {
return $this->scott;
}
}
$s = new test();
printf("%s", $s->return_scott()[0]);
Expected result:
----------------
I expected to see "Scott" printed to the screen
Actual result:
--------------
Syntax error, unexpected '['
