Re: Constant Scope PHP5

Yes, there appears to be some inconsistency here. We'll look into it. Zeev At 21:14 23/08/2003, Brad Bulger wrote:

hmm. but you can reference class constants without class/self:: when creating futher constants ('const bla = foo << 1;') and this works, too: <?php class foo {

        const bar = 3;
        function bla($x)
        {
                if ($x === bar)
                        print "yes it's bar\n";
                else
                        print "no it's not\n";
        }

} $x = new foo; $x->bla(4); $x->bla(3); ?>

Output: no it's not yes it's bar

Should'nt this work? Currently it reports an error about a undefined constant. <? class Test {

    const FOO = 100;
    var $bar = FOO;

Should be var $bar = Test::FOO (or self::FOO, even though it appears not to work right now) - there's no implicit class/object dereference of any kind in PHP. Zeev
