Anyway, static class properties are more important. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2017-03-27 19:11:58] tpunt@php.net The null coalescing operator should not be used to check whether a constant has been defined or not - that's what the defined() function is for. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2017-03-27 08:10:43] pandenitz at mail dot ru Same for class constants. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2017-03-01 17:05:48] pandenitz at mail dot ru I guess it's same in PHP 7.1 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
