PHP 4.0 Bug #9417: zend_eval_string() doesn't work like eval() :(

From: david@guerizec.net Operating system: GNU/linux PHP version: 4.0 Latest CVS (22/02/2001) PHP Bug Type: Feature/Change Request Bug description: zend_eval_string() doesn't work like eval() :( I need to simulate a call to eval() and the only function that seems to be able to do it is zend_eval_string(). Although it evaluates the string when I put NULL as second parameter (retval_ptr), it doesn't work (parse error) when I want to simulate the new behavior of PHP4 eval() (ie. with a return value) Is it possible to change the existing zend_eval_string (I think not cause pcre and assert use it this way already) ? If not, is it possible to have a new function that would behave like eval(), with the same parameters as zend_eval_string (I want to be able to specify a name on the string) ?
