Status: Open Type: Bug Package: Arrays related Operating System: Windows/Linux PHP Version: 7.1.18 Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: Because $a = [ 'a', 'b', ]; is a parse error. The comma after 'b' should trim in single line or cause parse error. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2018-05-31 16:50:02] peehaa@php.net Why would it strip commas? And why would it result in a parse error? Feels like there is something else wrong. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2018-05-31 16:43:54] kmvan dot com at gmail dot com Description: ------------ If a two-dimensional multiline array ends with a comma. The function php_strip_whitespace can not trim the last comma in single line, so cause parse error.

'/a.php')); // output: string(26) "<?php $a = [ 'a', 'b', ]; " Expected result: ---------------- // output: string(25) "<?php $a = [ 'a', 'b' ]; " Actual result: -------------- // output: string(26) "<?php $a = [ 'a', 'b', ]; " ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=76398&edit=1
