Re: PHP 4.0 Bug #4929 Updated: eval() doesn't parse string - in 3.0.x versions it did

Sorry about those typos/grammar mistakes. That's what happens when I spend too long in the bugs database :) Andi At 02:38 PM 6/9/00 +0000, Bug Database wrote:

ID: 4929 Updated by: andi Reported By: whole@gmx.net Status: Closed Bug Type: Misbehaving function Assigned To: Comments: We improved eval (and include) so that you can return a value from them (they have their own scope). You can do: $retval = eval("return 5";); which is the same as: $retval = 5; So this is an incompatibility between version 3 and 4 but we did it in order to improve eval(). You will need to explicitly return from the function call eval() and can do it from within eval() anymore.
