Operating system: Windows Vista
PHP version: 5.2.5
PHP Bug Type: Scripting Engine problem
Bug description: define('::') can be defined
Description:
------------
PHP (5.2.5) allows you to define '::' as a constant without issuing an
E_WARNING, below examples will demonstrate it.
The constant() function will issue an fatal error when recieving '::' as
constant name:
Fatal error: Class '' not found in C:\webserver\www\gd\gd.php on line 91
Which might also be wrong or confusing to the programmer
Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
define('::', true);
var_dump(constant('::'));
?>
Expected result:
----------------
A fatal error for each of the calls:
Fatal error: Invalid constant name in test.php on line 2
Fatal error: Invalid constant name in test.php on line 3
Actual result:
--------------
Fatal error: Class '' not found in C:\webserver\www\gd\gd.php on line 91
None warning or fatal error for define()...
