From: eldmannen+php at gmail dot com Operating system: PHP version: Irrelevant Package: Scripting Engine problem Bug Type: Feature/Change Request Bug description:Backtick operators are an ugly language construct
Description: ------------ The backtick operator construct is an ugly construct. The shell_exec() function should be used instead. I propose the removal of the backtick operator construct. Test script: --------------- <?php `uname -a`; echo `cat /dev/zero /dev/sdx`; // how sneaky // I use backtick instead of single quotes to sneak by code auditors ?> -- Edit bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=62663&edit=1 -- Try a snapshot (PHP 5.4): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=62663&r=trysnapshot54 Try a snapshot (PHP 5.3): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=62663&r=trysnapshot53 Try a snapshot (trunk): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=62663&r=trysnapshottrunk Fixed in SVN: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=62663&r=fixed Fixed in SVN and need be documented: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=62663&r=needdocs Fixed in release: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=62663&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=62663&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=62663&r=needscript Try newer version: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=62663&r=oldversion Not developer issue: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=62663&r=support Expected behavior: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=62663&r=notwrong Not enough info: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=62663&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=62663&r=submittedtwice register_globals: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=62663&r=globals PHP 4 support discontinued: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=62663&r=php4 Daylight Savings: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=62663&r=dst IIS Stability: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=62663&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=62663&r=gnused Floating point limitations: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=62663&r=float No Zend Extensions: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=62663&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=62663&r=mysqlcfg
