It validates and the doc looks good to me. Can you have a look and/or merge it @cmb? [1] https://edit.php.net/?patchID=3291&project=PHP ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2019-02-12 23:15:32] girgias@php.net Wrote a patch to improve the sprintf doc: http://edit.php.net/?patchID=3291&project=PHP @cmb I was thinking to maybe move the examples out of the format parameter and then move the format parameter XML into an entity and include this entity in all the other related functions (such as printf or fscanf for example). Oh also I couldn't try it out as I haven't managed to download the Doc Block Rendering system onto my Linux Sub System so not totally sure how this patch looks like. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2019-02-12 16:05:00] cmb@php.net Related To: Bug #77529 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
