Summary: Conditional __autoload declaration always causes
deprecation notice
Status: Open
Type: Bug
Package: Scripting Engine problem
Operating System: Ubuntu
PHP Version: 7.2.0

New Comment:
why don't you just fix the code?
spl_autoload_register('global_inc_autoloader');
function global_inc_autoloader($class_name){}
guess what: before the function was called __autoload()
http://php.net/manual/en/function.spl-autoload-register.php
(PHP 5 >= 5.1.2, PHP 7)
the whole code mess is not needed at all

Description:
------------
If the __autoload function is declared in a branch that never gets executed, PHP still outputs a
deprecation notice. The notice is a little haphazard and mostly only appears the first time a page
is loaded. Subsequent refreshes don't show the notice until a restart.
Also, it doesn't occur if you run the script below directly, only if you include it from
another script (i.e. autoload.php contains the code below, and test.php includes autoload.php).
Test script:
---------------
<?php
if (version_compare(PHP_VERSION, '5.1.2', '>=')) {
// use spl_autoload_register()
} else {
function __autoload($classname)
{
echo 'called autoloader';
}
}
Expected result:
----------------
No deprecation notice on PHP 7.2, because the else clause doesn't run and so the function is
not defined.
Actual result:
--------------
Deprecated: __autoload() is deprecated, use spl_autoload_register() instead in /path/autoload.php on
line 6
Appears the first time the page is viewed, disappears after that.
