Bug #52438 [Com]: Parser error on a simple example

Edit report at http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=52438&edit=1 ID: 52438 Comment by: dagdamor10 at mail dot ru Reported by: dagdamor10 at mail dot ru Summary: Parser error on a simple example Status: Bogus Type: Bug Package: Scripting Engine problem Operating System: Windows PHP Version: 5.2.14 Block user comment: N New Comment: Since "}" is not a letter (and never was), the test above is perfectly valid. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2010-07-26 02:27:22] scottmac@php.net It's always been <?php\w that has been required for lexer. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2010-07-25 16:02:05] dagdamor10 at mail dot ru Description: ------------ My framework (http://www.phpc.ru) uses automatic code generation, and when I was fine-tuning it, I discovered a weird error in the PHP parser. Test script: --------------- <?php function test() {?>This is a test.<?php} ?> Expected result: ---------------- Empty screen (since the function is never called) Actual result: -------------- Parse error: syntax error, unexpected $end in index.php on line 6 If you add a space character between "<?php" and "}", it works just fine. I simply used a workaround, but maybe this report will be useful for you. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=52438&edit=1
