eval
(PHP 4, PHP 5)
eval — Evaluate a string as PHP code
Descrizione
Evaluates the string given in code_str as PHP code. Among other things, this can be useful for storing code in a database text field for later execution.
There are some factors to keep in mind when using eval(). Remember that the string passed must be valid PHP code, including things like terminating statements with a semicolon so the parser doesn't die on the line after the eval(), and properly escaping things in code_str . To mix HTML output and PHP code you can use a closing PHP tag to leave PHP mode.
Also remember that variables given values under eval() will retain these values in the main script afterwards.
Elenco dei parametri
- code_str
-
The code string to be evaluated. code_str does not have to contain PHP Opening tags.
A return statement will immediately terminate the evaluation of the string .
Valori restituiti
As of PHP 4, eval() returns NULL unless return is called in the evaluated code, in which case the value passed to return is returned. If there is a parse error in the evaluated code, eval() returns FALSE and execution of the following code continues normally. It is not possible to catch a parse error in eval() using set_error_handler().
Esempi
Example#1 eval() example - simple text merge
<?php
$string = 'cup';
$name = 'coffee';
$str = 'This is a $string with my $name in it.';
echo $str. "\n";
eval("\$str = \"$str\";");
echo $str. "\n";
?>
Il precedente esempio visualizzerà:
This is a $string with my $name in it. This is a cup with my coffee in it.
Note
Nota: Poichè questo è un costrutto del linguaggio e non una funzione, non può essere chiamato con le variabili funzione
Come con qualsiasi cosa che invia il risultato direttamente al browser, è possibile utilizzare la funzione output-control per catturare l'uscita di questa funzione e salvarla - per esempio - in una stringa (per esempio).
Nota: In case of a fatal error in the evaluated code, the whole script exits.
