This apparently changed in PHP 5.3.0, yet is not in NEWS or documented. Please clarify the situation, as this may have been an unintentional change and BC break. Related: PHP bug #49223 Reproduce code: --------------- <?php $constants = get_defined_constants(true); if (isset($constants['Core'])) { echo 'Key "Core" exists, PHP version: ' . PHP_VERSION; } if (isset($constants['internal'])) { echo 'Key "internal" exists, PHP version: ' . PHP_VERSION; } Expected result: ---------------- Key "internal" exists, PHP version: 5.3.2-dev Key "internal" exists, PHP version: 5.2.8 Actual result: -------------- Key "Core" exists, PHP version: 5.3.2-dev Key "internal" exists, PHP version: 5.2.8 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=49923&edit=1
