#21119 [NEW]: Modified Control Structures

From: ericf@micgi.com Operating system: NA PHP version: 4.2.3 PHP Bug Type: Feature/Change Request Bug description: Modified Control Structures Here's a suggestion that we(local developers in Carbondale,IL) all feel would improve usability of the control structures in PHP. What if in this statement... if (($x == 'cats') && ($x == 'dogs') && ($x == 'birds')) { we instead could say... if ($x IN 'cats','dogs','birds') { This would reduce typing and allow you to compare lists(arrays) in your conditional statements without using array functions. -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=21119&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=21119&r=trysnapshot Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=21119&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=21119&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=21119&r=needtrace Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=21119&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=21119&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=21119&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=21119&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=21119&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=21119&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=21119&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=21119&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=21119&r=isapi
