From: jdv at foobar dot be Operating system: Linux PHP version: 5.0.4 PHP Bug Type: Feature/Change Request Bug description: Feature to run function inline within the local scope
Description: ------------ It would be nice to see a feature that allowed for functions to be executed, inline, within the current local scope. The behaviour I intend for is that of eval(). Calling eval($code) allows $code to access variables from the local scope from which eval is called. It also allows $code to set variables in this local scope. Both features, if accessible to user-defined functions, would come in handy on occasions. One particular useful function that could be built if this functionality existed, would accept a string for argument and replace all %foo occurences in it by the -- according to context -- properly escaped value of $foo. Such a function could then be used for composing HTML and SQL strings more easily. -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=34210&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (php4): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=34210&r=trysnapshot4 Try a CVS snapshot (php5.0): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=34210&r=trysnapshot50 Try a CVS snapshot (php5.1): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=34210&r=trysnapshot51 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=34210&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=34210&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=34210&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=34210&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=34210&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=34210&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=34210&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=34210&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=34210&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=34210&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=34210&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=34210&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=34210&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=34210&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=34210&r=float No Zend Extensions: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=34210&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=34210&r=mysqlcfg
