Doc #66587 [NEW]: __DIR__ and other magic constants show trait data in trait

From: wim at wimgodden dot be Operating system: Any PHP version: Irrelevant Package: Documentation problem Bug Type: Documentation Problem Bug description:__DIR__ and other magic constants show trait data in trait Description: ------------ --- From manual page: http://www.php.net/language.constants.predefined --- It might be useful to add information detailing that __DIR__ and __FILE__ and __LINE__ will show the directory, file and line number of the code in the trait definition file, not the location where the trait is being used. It is counterintuitive for non-core developers, so it's best to mention this in de docs. -- Edit bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=66587&edit=1 -- Try a snapshot (PHP 5.4): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=66587&r=trysnapshot54 Try a snapshot (PHP 5.5): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=66587&r=trysnapshot55 Try a snapshot (trunk): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=66587&r=trysnapshottrunk Fixed in SVN: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=66587&r=fixed Fixed in release: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=66587&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=66587&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=66587&r=needscript Try newer version: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=66587&r=oldversion Not developer issue: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=66587&r=support Expected behavior: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=66587&r=notwrong Not enough info: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=66587&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=66587&r=submittedtwice register_globals: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=66587&r=globals PHP 4 support discontinued: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=66587&r=php4 Daylight Savings: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=66587&r=dst IIS Stability: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=66587&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=66587&r=gnused Floating point limitations: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=66587&r=float No Zend Extensions: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=66587&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=66587&r=mysqlcfg
