PHP version: Irrelevant
Package: Scripting Engine problem
Bug Type: Feature/Change Request
Bug description:{} with Return Value
Description:
------------
It would be pretty cool if you were able to use { CodeHere; } as
Statement.
The Basic Idea behind this is like if the Code was a Function that had a
Return
Statement. Its only a little inefficient because the Function might only be
used
one Time, which means it would be useful to have such a Feature.
Examples are given in the TestScript
Test script:
---------------
<?php
//1.
if({
$a = false;
$b = true;
return (time() % 2) && $b || $a;
}) echo 'It equals to True';
//2.
mysql_connect(...) or {
$file = fopen('ErrorLog', 'a+');
...;
return die();
};
//3.
$a = 12 + {
return 2 * 2;
};
?>
Expected result:
----------------
1. Depending on the Time echoing 'It equals to True';
2. When mysql_connect returns false that it evaluates the {}-Code
3. $a = 16;
Actual result:
--------------
Parse Error of course
