Doc #54715 [NEW]: Reporting error line about undefined constant

From: Operating system: CentOS 5.4 PHP version: 5.3.6 Package: Unknown/Other Function Bug Type: Documentation Problem Bug description:Reporting error line about undefined constant Description: ------------ Hi, For me the following script should report the error line 4, not 7. It wasn't so obvious to track down the issue. I read this bug http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=38324, but class constants may not be defined in runtime. Test script: --------------- <?php class A{ public $arr = array(self::UNDEFINED_CONST); } new A; Expected result: ---------------- Fatal error: Undefined class constant 'self::UNDEFINED_CONST' in - on line 3 Actual result: -------------- Fatal error: Undefined class constant 'self::UNDEFINED_CONST' in - on line 7 -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=54715&edit=1 -- Try a snapshot (PHP 5.2): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=54715&r=trysnapshot52 Try a snapshot (PHP 5.3): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=54715&r=trysnapshot53 Try a snapshot (trunk): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=54715&r=trysnapshottrunk Fixed in SVN: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=54715&r=fixed Fixed in SVN and need be documented: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=54715&r=needdocs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=54715&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=54715&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=54715&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=54715&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=54715&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=54715&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=54715&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=54715&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=54715&r=globals PHP 4 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=54715&r=php4 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=54715&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=54715&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=54715&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=54715&r=float No Zend Extensions: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=54715&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=54715&r=mysqlcfg
