ID: 46700 Updated by: derick@php.net Reported By: the_djmaze at hotmail dot com -Status: Open +Status: Bogus Bug Type: Feature/Change Request Operating System: GNU/Linux PHP Version: 5.2.6 New Comment: Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at http://www.php.net/manual/ and the instructions on how to report a bug at http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php isset() is a keyword, and as such you can't use it as a function name.

I know it's a language construct but shouldn't the parser check if isset() is called as a function? Reproduce code: --------------- <?php abstract class anObject { public static function isset($key) { return $key; } } ?> Expected result: ---------------- It works Actual result: -------------- Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_ISSET, expecting T_STRING ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=46700&edit=1
