#30537 [Csd]: Predefined Constants Missing Magic constants

ID: 30537 Updated by: goba@php.net Reported By: ammar at gnuix dot com Status: Closed Bug Type: Documentation problem Operating System: * PHP Version: Irrelevant New Comment: Philip, feel free to touch the file, modify as you see fit. If you need translateable text in it, use snippets (entities). If some text is not applicable to go to an entity, then we need to discuss this a bit further. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-10-29 20:34:38] vrana@php.net The file reserved.constants contains only entities and no translatable text. I believe it's the only reason to not copy this file to other language versions (to let compiler fall to English). ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-10-29 19:51:00] philip@php.net The issue of translation has not been resolved. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-10-28 10:19:40] vrana@php.net This bug has been fixed in the documentation's XML sources. Since the online and downloadable versions of the documentation need some time to get updated, we would like to ask you to be a bit patient. Thank you for the report, and for helping us make our documentation better. "See also: Magic constants." in Core Predefined Constants. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-10-28 02:44:58] ammar at gnuix dot com But I think they need to be also linked from the reserved constants page. Information should be available wherever appropriate, I had hard time finding those magic constants, if they were linked from that page things would have been better :) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-10-26 06:39:04] philip@php.net Some notes: - These constants are linked to from here: http://php.net/constants - reserved.constants should link to language.constants but as of now reserved.constants contains the following text: <!-- This file shold only be present in the English doc tree. If you copy it over to your translation tree you will be hunted down relentlessly! You have been warned! :) --> So perhaps it shouldn't be touched, or, the above note be removed. - The [predefined/reserved] constants pages should in the very least be 'grouped together' a little better. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
