From: johfivealive at hotmail dot com Operating system: Fedora Core 2 PHP version: 5.0.0RC3 PHP Bug Type: Zend Engine 2 problem Bug description: Parse error caused by "valid" array/string syntax
Description: ------------ I think this should not be a parse error, this should work. It seems the concatenation of LOGIK_CONFIG_FILE to the string: "<span class=\"error\"><strong></strong> couldn't be opened for reading.<br />Check file permissions.</span>" is causing the parse error. Reproduce code: --------------- define( "LOGIK_DIRECTORY", $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] . "/" ); define( "LOGIK_CONFIG_DIRECTORY", "config/" ); define( "LOGIK_CONFIG_FILE", LOGIK_DIRECTORY . LOGIK_CONFIG_DIRECTORY . "logikconfig.xml" ); define( "LOGIK_CONFIG_FILE_FOPEN_ERROR", 3 ); static $errors = array( LOGIK_CONFIG_FILE_FOPEN_ERROR => "<span class=\"error\"><strong>" . LOGIK_CONFIG_FILE . "</strong> couldn't be opened for reading.<br />Check file permissions.</span>" ); The above array() creation syntax is what throws the parse error. Expected result: ---------------- This shouldn't be a parse error because it is valid string concatenation syntax. Actual result: -------------- PHP reprts the following error: Parse error: parse error, unexpected '.', expecting ')' -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=29021&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (php4): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=29021&r=trysnapshot4 Try a CVS snapshot (php5): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=29021&r=trysnapshot5 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=29021&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=29021&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=29021&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=29021&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=29021&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=29021&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=29021&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=29021&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=29021&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=29021&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=29021&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=29021&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=29021&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=29021&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=29021&r=float
