Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2019-03-11 22:49:27] girgias@php.net Huh, seems reasonable to write it like that Kalle. Will go on and update my current patch for it. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2019-03-11 22:34:35] kalle@php.net "PHP implements the static and global modifier for variables..." Something along those lines is how I would phrase it ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2019-03-11 19:50:40] requinix@php.net PHP 4 has been/is being removed from the manual. That whole section should be checked to make sure it's still correct for PHP 7, and of course edited a bit. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2019-03-11 19:00:30] girgias@php.net Description: ------------ --- From manual page: https://php.net/language.variables.scope --- When talking about references with global and static [1] there is a mention of PHP 4 and Zend Engine 1 which is pretty outdated information. However, I don't know how to rephrase it or if the section should be removed.
