It does crash on Windows though, but not when run from within the MS VC debugger... ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-05-04 05:26:31] nicos@php.net Note that you will be get a notice if you use error_reporting(E_ALL); : Notice: Use of undefined constant DATEFORMAT - assumed 'DATEFORMAT' in - on line 3 -(3) : Notice - Use of undefined constant DATEFORMAT - assumed 'DATEFORMAT' ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-05-04 05:17:09] nicos@php.net This probably happens because the engine accepts unquoted word when it's alone. It takes it as $today = date('DATEFORMAT',$timestamp); Yes this is ugly but I don't think this can be changed if we dont want to break BC again. Btw if you try $today = date(DATEFORMAT LOL,$timestamp); It will parser error but not with only one word. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-05-04 05:13:08] nicos@php.net I have the same problem with PHP5: [Sun May 4 - 12:08:17 - nicos ~]$ php <?php //define(DATEFORMAT, 'Y/m/d'); $timestamp = Time(); $today = Date(DATEFORMAT, $timestamp); echo "Hi, today is $today"; ?> Hi, today is SunPMCESTEMay+0200RMayPMCEST [Sun May 4 - 12:08:19 - nicos ~]$ PHP 5.0.0-dev (cli) (built: Apr 27 2003 15:59:15) Copyright (c) 1997-2003 The PHP Group Zend Engine v2.0.0-dev, Copyright (c) 1998-2003 Zend Technologies Same with : PHP 4.3.2-RC1 (cli) (built: May 1 2003 19:59:00) Copyright (c) 1997-2003 The PHP Group Zend Engine v1.3.0, Copyright (c) 1998-2003 Zend Technologies Shouldn't it print an E_FATAL when we're using an undefined constant? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
