note 103810 added to function.define

>>Something I found out the "hard" way today: integers starting with 0 won't >>work. Integers starting with a 0 are octal and do work. The example included 9s and so failed parsing. >>Constant name must not written as string. The following code works also: Constant names not written as strings will produce warnings in your error log because evaluating a constant to get a name is legal. <?php define("FOO", "bar"); define("SC", 0777); define(FOO, 1232); // this is the same as define("bar", 1232); var_dump(SC); // prints 511 var_dump(bar); // prints 1232 ?> ---- Server IP: 208.69.120.55 Probable Submitter: 168.103.182.71 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.define.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/103810 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/103810/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/103810/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/103810/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/103810/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/103810/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/103810/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/103810 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/103810 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
