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: Verified 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: Oops -- I thought $description isn't supported anymore as of PHP 7.0.0. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2016-04-09 09:29:02] requinix@php.net @lsloan is talking about the syntax portion at the top of the description. > PHP 5 > bool assert ( mixed $assertion [, string $description ] ) > PHP 7 > bool assert ( mixed $assertion [, Throwable $exception ] ) It implies that the string $description argument is only supported in PHP 5. The patch changes the first line to "PHP 5 and 7". ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2016-04-09 09:19:23] cmb@php.net 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. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [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... ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
