Bug #15101: eval() in other context

From: tom.polak@post.sk Operating system: Solaris PHP version: 4.1.0 PHP Bug Type: Feature/Change Request Bug description: eval() in other context Hello, my request is to improve function eval() to be possible evaluate given string in other than current context. In SQLWindows, where I have programming before, I have this feature and was very useful. It means, that on the some place in script we save "context" to be used for evaluate and receive some "resource variable" to identify it. Lately, we can call eval() with this additional parameter to be able evaluate given string in previously saved context. In SQLWindows I have used this to "bind" variables into dynamicaly generated SQL statements, because they were generated inside some functions library, where the current local variables are not in scope. If it is not clear, I can give you more specification. If you do not realize this feature, send me info, to be not waiting in my project on it. Looking forward to your answer.
