Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2015-06-28 22:36:03] stas@php.net Not sure it is really necessary to specify, this doesn't seem to be an important use case. Is there any reason why it should be one way or another? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2014-08-11 18:34:55] fredemmott@php.net Description: ------------ If a closure has an argument and a used variable with the same name, PHP5 uses the variable; HHVM uses the argument. The PHP5 behavior should be documented in the specification. There's also an issue filed against HHVM to match PHP5's behavior (https://github.com/facebook/hhvm/issues/3406) Test script: --------------- <?php $foo = 'used variable'; $closure = function ($foo) use ($foo) { return $foo; }; var_dump($closure('argument')); Expected result: ---------------- 'used variable' Actual result: -------------- PHP5: 'used variable' HHVM: 'argument' ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=67822&edit=1
