Long ago I was told constants could only be scalars, so I accepted it. Certainly ZEND_FUNCTION(define) does the check to ensure it's a scalar, but why?
For what I can tell a zend_constant is just a container for an ordinary zval which is refcounted and all that fun stuff. I don't see any obvious reason for this restriction, and my tests with those restrictions removed seem safe enough so far... Can someone spell it out for me with little words? -Sara -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
