From: s dot tretter at szene1 dot at Operating system: Linux PHP version: 5.3.0alpha1 PHP Bug Type: *General Issues Bug description: Cannot declare self-referencing constant Description: ------------ The problem is that the same script worked in php5.2.6, but in php5.3 it results in a "Fatal error: Cannot declare self-referencing constant 'n61' in ..." There is an array that uses many constants to set the array with values. If I execute a method of the class this error message stops the execution..but the line of the code has nothing todo with this array! strange error... just let me send my test code, u will see it yourself. If i modify the array, remove the lines that php is complain about, some lines and so on.. it works.. but these lines are not differnt to the ohter lines..!? I don't understand it. Also tried with latest cvs snapshot Reproduce code: --------------- I have a test script, but I don't wanna publish the code... May I send it directly to a php developer? Expected result: ---------------- like in php5.2.6 this code should work! Actual result: -------------- Fatal error: Cannot declare self-referencing constant 'n61' in /..../test.php on line 132 -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=45910&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 5.2): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=45910&r=trysnapshot52 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 5.3): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=45910&r=trysnapshot53 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 6.0): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=45910&r=trysnapshot60 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=45910&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=45910&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=45910&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=45910&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=45910&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=45910&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=45910&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=45910&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=45910&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=45910&r=globals PHP 4 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=45910&r=php4 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=45910&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=45910&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=45910&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=45910&r=float No Zend Extensions: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=45910&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=45910&r=mysqlcfg
