From: Operating system: Windows PHP version: 5.3.8 Package: Unknown/Other Function Bug Type: Feature/Change Request Bug description:Suggestion for new function
Description: ------------ I've been looking for a solution on PHP as I need some way to evaluate expressions within strings. Since with if: $str = '5>6'; if($str) Would evaluate as true regardless of the expression. A good possible solution for this may be a function for evaluating the expressions in the string, eg. evalexp($str); which would return true or false based on the expression within the string. Eval is an alternative however, it can create security issues when used with user provided content for obvious reasons. -- Edit bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=60171&edit=1 -- Try a snapshot (PHP 5.4): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=60171&r=trysnapshot54 Try a snapshot (PHP 5.3): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=60171&r=trysnapshot53 Try a snapshot (trunk): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=60171&r=trysnapshottrunk Fixed in SVN: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=60171&r=fixed Fixed in SVN and need be documented: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=60171&r=needdocs Fixed in release: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=60171&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=60171&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=60171&r=needscript Try newer version: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=60171&r=oldversion Not developer issue: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=60171&r=support Expected behavior: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=60171&r=notwrong Not enough info: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=60171&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=60171&r=submittedtwice register_globals: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=60171&r=globals PHP 4 support discontinued: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=60171&r=php4 Daylight Savings: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=60171&r=dst IIS Stability: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=60171&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=60171&r=gnused Floating point limitations: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=60171&r=float No Zend Extensions: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=60171&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=60171&r=mysqlcfg
