I am happy if the documentation is left as is or changed to this: "The default value must be a constant expression, not (for example) a variable, class member, <NEW ADDITION> or function call </NEW ADDITION>. Thanks. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-06-17 04:27:59] betz@php.net It seems this is documented at: http://www.php.net/manual/en/functions.arguments.php#functions.arguments.default Maybe a bit hidden ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-01-31 13:04:32] philip@php.net Yeah, we may as well mention this here: file: phpdoc/{lang}/language/functions.xml section: <sect2 id="functions.arguments.default"> ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-09-26 19:56:13] sniper@php.net No feedback was provided.
