Hello internals
I've been looking at the function define_syslog_variables(), and I'm
unsure if its intentional to keep this old functionality in PHP,
seeing as define_syslog_variables defines a shortcut for each of the
LOG_* constants in the form of $LOG_*.
Therefore I propose the function is being deprecated in 5.3 and
removed in HEAD.
I agree. Fixing your code is easy (just remove the call to
define_syslog_variables() and the $ in front of LOG), maintains BC
with older PHP releases.
On the up side this function could create an insanely hard to debug
problem for users, is redundant and was a very bad idea from the start
(and the docs seem incorrect too).
That being said I never used this function or the constants in my
code. So is there anyone that does actually use it and has some
objection?
