note 93576 added to language.types.string

Although current documentation says 'A string literal can be specified in four different ways: ...', actually there is a fifth way to specify a (binary) string: <?php $binary = b'This is a binary string'; ?> The above statement declares a binary string using the 'b' prefix, which is available since PHP 5.2.1. However, it will only have effect as of PHP 6.0.0, as noted on http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.is-binary.php . ---- Server IP: 209.41.74.194 Probable Submitter: 208.67.191.194 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/language.types.string.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/93576 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/93576/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/93576/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/93576/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/93576/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/93576/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/93576/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/93576 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/93576 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
