Doc #71496 [NEW]: mb_ereg & mb_eregi definitions are missing & symbol on $regs parameter

From: cbot at epu dot ntua dot gr Operating system: PHP version: Irrelevant Package: mbstring related Bug Type: Documentation Problem Bug description:mb_ereg & mb_eregi definitions are missing & symbol on $regs parameter Description: ------------ --- From manual page: http://www.php.net/function.mb-ereg From manual page: http://www.php.net/function.mb-eregi --- Both mb_ereg and mb_eregi functions have an optional $regs parameter which will be returned as an array. Since this is a pass-by-reference parameter, shouldn't the definitions mention it with the & (ampersand) symbol? IDEs, using stubs based on the documentation, complain for undefined variable. Expected result: ---------------- int mb_ereg ( string $pattern , string $string [, array &$regs ] ) int mb_eregi ( string $pattern , string $string [, array &$regs ] ) Actual result: -------------- int mb_ereg ( string $pattern , string $string [, array $regs ] ) int mb_eregi ( string $pattern , string $string [, array $regs ] ) -- Edit bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=71496&edit=1 -- Try a snapshot (PHP 5.4): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=71496&r=trysnapshot54 Try a snapshot (PHP 5.5): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=71496&r=trysnapshot55 Try a snapshot (trunk): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=71496&r=trysnapshottrunk Fixed in SVN: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=71496&r=fixed Fixed in release: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=71496&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=71496&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=71496&r=needscript Try newer version: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=71496&r=oldversion Not developer issue: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=71496&r=support Expected behavior: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=71496&r=notwrong Not enough info: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=71496&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=71496&r=submittedtwice register_globals: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=71496&r=globals PHP 4 support discontinued: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=71496&r=php4 Daylight Savings: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=71496&r=dst IIS Stability: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=71496&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=71496&r=gnused Floating point limitations: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=71496&r=float No Zend Extensions: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=71496&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=71496&r=mysqlcfg
