#36744 [Opn->Bgs]: Not clear if Perl-style matching delimiters are enabled by default in PHP 4.0.4

ID: 36744 Updated by: vrana@php.net Reported By: barry at n0spam dot polisource dot com -Status: Open +Status: Bogus Bug Type: Documentation problem PHP Version: Irrelevant New Comment: "For older versions you have to configure and compile PHP with --with-pcre-regex[=DIR] in order to use these functions." Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2006-03-15 15:23:42] barry at n0spam dot polisource dot com Description: ------------ At http://us2.php.net/pcre it says "Since PHP 4.0.4, you can also use Perl-style (), {}, [], and <> matching delimiters....Beginning with PHP 4.2.0 these functions are enabled by default." It sounds like Perl-style matching delimiters are available in PHP 4.0.4, but might not be enabled by default, and it doesn't say how to enable them. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=36744&edit=1
