Edit report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=71991&edit=1 ID: 71991 Updated by: cmb@php.net Reported by: lsloan at umich dot edu Summary: assert() docs seem to imply PHP 5 only -Status: Open +Status: Not a bug Type: Documentation Problem Package: Documentation problem Operating System: OS X 10.11 PHP Version: 5.6.20 -Assigned To: +Assigned To: cmb Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: Immediately below the section on the PHP 5 synopsis, there is a section on the PHP 7 synopsis, which differs slightly. Additionally, at the very top of the page is the info, that assert is available under PHP 4, PHP 5 and PHP 7. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2016-04-09 00:56:29] requinix@php.net If you really wanted to, but the online editor is easier. It would help to do the reverse, though: mention this bug report in your commit. (If you didn't already.) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2016-04-09 00:12:36] lsloan at umich dot edu Thank you for pointing that out. I believe I've finished the job at edit.php.net. My change now appears under the "Patches for review" heading. Do I need to do anything else, like attach the patch to this bug report? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2016-04-08 23:19:13] requinix@php.net Changes to the docs online need to be saved, committed to a patch, and finally approved before they can get onto the site. I see your change but it doesn't look like you've committed it yet... ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2016-04-08 16:00:39] lsloan at umich dot edu Description: ------------ --- From manual page: http://www.php.net/function.assert --- The manual page includes the text: Description PHP 5 bool assert ( mixed $assertion [, string $description ] ) It seems to imply that form of the method is for PHP 5 only. Actually, reading further, it shows that this form works with PHP 5 and 7. The text should be changed to: Description PHP 5 and 7 bool assert ( mixed $assertion [, string $description ] ) I tried to change this via the online documentation editor, but I can't tell whether my change was saved. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=71991&edit=1
