Status: Open
Type: Bug

Hi,
Thanks for this, I basically completely misunderstood what this function was
supposed to do. I thought it validated a regex string (i.e was it a valid
regex), not that it validated an input string matched a particular regex.
Whoops!

This is not a bug. Your function invocation is incorrect. I believe what you
meant is
$var = filter_var($string_to_filter, FILTER_VALIDATE_REGEXP, array('options' =>
array('regexp' => '/^something$/')));
c.f. http://us.php.net/manual/en/function.filter-var.php

Description:
------------
The regexp option is missing when using filter_var function in PHP 5.4, but was
present using the same SPEC file build process when using PHP 5.3.
Test script:
---------------
$var = filter_var('/^something$/', FILTER_VALIDATE_REGEXP);
Expected result:
----------------
/^something$/
Actual result:
--------------
Warning: filter_var(): 'regexp' option missing in php shell code on line 1
