Re: PHP 4.0 Bug #9195: Default class function arguments

Default function arguments have to be static, non dynamic values. The way to do it is function foo($bar=unset) {

        if (!isset($bar)) {
                $bar = ...;
        }

Bug description: Default class function arguments I'm requesting that the default function arguments for a class method be able to reference the class variable members in it's definition. Here is an example of it's use: class searchclass {

        var $hits;
        var $results;

        function save($filename, $start = 0, $end = $this->hits){ /* <- this returns Parse error: */
                if($fp = @fopen($filename, "w")){
                        for($i = $start; $i < $end; $i++){
                                fwrite($fp, implode("|", $this->results[$i]));
                        }
                }else{
                        return false;
                }
        }

        function search(){
                /* ... */
        }
