I know that you posted https://gist.github.com/nikic/ffd019ef78b72934c7cc which uses PhpParser\Lexer from your PHP-Parser project, so my understanding was that it is possible to detect those expressions with both the current php stable version and with the new one containing the uniform_variable_syntax changes. -- Ferenc Kovács @Tyr43l - http://tyrael.hu
