ID: 65772 Updated by: requi...@php.net Reported by: matteo_tassinari_TM at libero dot it Summary: Implement "default" as a possible function/method argument value in calls Status: Open Type: Feature/Change Request Package: Variables related Operating System: Any PHP Version: Irrelevant Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: Existing RFC for this exact thing: https://wiki.php.net/rfc/skipparams Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2013-09-27 06:49:33] matteo_tassinari_TM at libero dot it Description: ------------ I think it would be useful if we could use the "default" keyword when passing parameters to a method/function so that the value for the parameter for which "default" is passed automatically takes the defined default value, without need of knowing it. Test script: --------------- For example, consider this: function justToTest($a = 10, $b = 0) { var_dump($a, $b); } justToTest(); justToTest(5); justToTest(default, 5); Expected result: ---------------- The first call should show int 10 int 0 The second call should show int 5 int 0 The third call should show int 10 int 5 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=65772&edit=1
