#23922 [NEW]: With assert(string): $this unavailable inside of eval() code

From: dave at codewhore dot org Operating system: Linux 2.4 PHP version: 5CVS-2003-05-31 (dev) PHP Bug Type: Scripting Engine problem Bug description: With assert(string): $this unavailable inside of eval() code Hi: Given the following script, which uses assert to eval() a string that references the current class instance: <?php class foo { var $foo = 1; function as_string() { assert('$this->foo == 1'); } function as_expr() { assert($this->foo == 1); } } $foo = new foo(); $foo->as_expr(); $foo->as_string(); ?> PHP 4.3-cvs executes it correctly, but PHP 5.0-cvs with ZE2 fails: Fatal error: Using $this when not in object context in /home/dave/test.php(8) : assert code on line 1 Is this expected behavior? More specifically, is $this no longer available inside of an eval() on ZE2?
