Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-04-29 23:14:29] sniper@php.net Of course it won't work. It's a feature.. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-04-28 15:40:13] simon at studio24 dot net Problem still occurs with PHP 4.3.5 (version updated in edit submission form) Test script prints: heredoc : { string : \{ I am presuming this is because curly braces can be used to include more complex variables in a heredoc syntax, ie. {$this->var['key']} See: http://www.php.net/manual/en/language.types.string.php#language.types.string.syntax.heredoc PHP seems to be spotting \{ and treating this as an escaped curly brace, even though there is no matching closing brace. best wishes, Simon ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-09-19 01:00:01] php-bugs at lists dot php dot net No feedback was provided for this bug for over a month, so it is being suspended automatically.
