#20924 [Com]: Functions inside declare(ticks=1) cannot be used prior to definition

ID: 20924 Comment by: a_villacis@palosanto.com Reported By: a_villacis@palosanto.com Status: Open Bug Type: Scripting Engine problem Operating System: Linux 2.4.7-10 PHP Version: 4.3.0RC2 New Comment: Same problem with 4.3.0RC4. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-12-12 11:46:22] a_villacis@palosanto.com I just upgraded to version 4.3.0RC3 with the same configure command, but the script gives the same message as in the original posting. This behavior is rather annoying, but a workaround is to declare the troublesome procedure *outside* the scope of the 'declare(ticks=1) {}' block. However, this does not seem to help if the new syntax 'declare(ticks=1);' is used to cover the entire script under the declare() scope.

Any hints in solving this issue will be greatly appreciated.
