From: edg at greenberg dot org Operating system: n/a PHP version: 7.4.15 Package: Unknown/Other Function Bug Type: Documentation Problem Bug description:Documentation pages for tokenizer conflict with each other Description: ------------ --- From manual page: https://php.net/tokenizer.examples --- The example code conflicts (does exactly the wrong thing) with the warning on documentation page: https://www.php.net/manual/en/tokens.php wherein it is written: Note: Usage of T_* constants All tokens listed below are also defined as PHP constants. Their value is automatically generated based on PHP's underlying parser infrastructure. This means that the concrete value of a token may change between two PHP versions. For example the T_FILE constant is 365 in PHP 5.3, while the same value refers now to T_TRAIT in PHP 5.4 and the value of T_FILE is 369. This means that your code should never rely directly on the original T_* values taken from PHP version X.Y.Z, to provide some compatibility across multiple PHP versions. Instead your code should utilize custom values (using big numbers like 10000) and an appropriate strategy that will work with both PHP versions and T_* values. -- Edit bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=80772&edit=1 -- Fix committed: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=80772&r=fixed Fixed in release: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=80772&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=80772&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=80772&r=needscript Try newer version: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=80772&r=oldversion Not developer issue: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=80772&r=support Expected behavior: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=80772&r=notwrong Not enough info: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=80772&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=80772&r=submittedtwice register_globals: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=80772&r=globals PHP version support discontinued: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=80772&r=phptooold Daylight Savings: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=80772&r=dst IIS Stability: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=80772&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=80772&r=gnused Floating point limitations: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=80772&r=float No Zend Extensions: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=80772&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=80772&r=mysqlcfg
