Description:
------------
IMPORTANT: DON'T MARK THIS BOGUS (like 43894) BEFORE READING *CAREFULLY* THE DESCRIPTION AND EXPECTED RESULTS.

Run the snippet. It should produce two warnings. But the include
function is inexplicably prefixed with my class name.

Reproduce code:
---------------
class MyClass 
{
	static public function loadCode($p) {
		return include $p;
	}
}

MyClass::loadCode('file-which-does-not-exist-on-purpose.php');

Expected result:
----------------
Warning: include(file-which-does-not-exist-on-purpose.php) [function.include]: ...

Warning: include() [function.include]: ...


Actual result:
--------------
Warning: MyClass::include(file-which-does-not-exist-on-purpose.php) [function.MyClass-include]: ...

Warning: MyClass::include() [function.include]: ...

Like due to namespaces... but that can only happen if you're running PHP 5.3. Did you fill in the wrong version?
 [2008-01-29 07:51 UTC] sv4php at fmethod dot com 
Hi Derick, no, it's 5.2.5 stable official Win32 binary build, 100% (just made sure again).

PHP Version 5.2.5; Windows NT SV 5.1 build 2600; Zend Engine v2.2.0, Copyright (c) 1998-2007 Zend Technologies

Also I believe I tested this with earlier 5.x builds and it was like that again, but I'm lazy to check again. Let me know if I have to, I can do that.

Also notice there's no namespace used or defined in the example (and the namespace is not "php", but my class name, which makes no sense to me).

I can not reproduce this btw....

Hi, I reproduced this on a 5.3 nightly just now (on XP), on 5.2.5 (on XP), and here's a live link to a 5.2.1 (on Linux, CentOS):

http://www.fmethod.com/include_fail.php

This is the same exact example, but I added phpversion() call.

Note for the archives: I'll remove this link in few days.

Exactly why it shouldn't print the class in which this happens?
 [2008-02-02 08:37 UTC] sv4php at fmethod dot com 
'Exactly why it shouldn't print the class in which this happens?'

Four solid reasons:

1. Because running a method in the class is not the same as defining a method for the class.

2. Replace 'include $p' with 'file_get_contents($p)' above, it does NOT print the class (and it shouldn't).

3. If you have html_errors on, it prints a link that directs you to the manual for method "include" in class "MyClass", which doesn't exist.

4. For us wild experimenters, makes re-routing errors in error handlers less trivial, since the output is wrong...

This bug has been fixed in CVS.

will be in the next snapshot. You can grab the snapshot at

Thank you for the report, and for helping us make PHP better.
