AzeS Posted February 10, 2018 Author Share Posted February 10, 2018 yes, thank you for that, but id like to change the name for preg_split() to split() in the php lib or install php 5 alongside with 7 without losing 7 as the standart and not to be informed in the fact that its removed/ deprecated Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/306493-i-need-to-install-split-on-php7/#findComment-1556234 Share on other sites More sharing options...
requinix Posted February 11, 2018 Share Posted February 11, 2018 Don't. Stuff gets removed for good reasons and adding them back in is counter-productive. Just fix the damn code.

requinix Posted February 11, 2018 Share Posted February 11, 2018 Search for "split". Any good IDE will be able to search an entire project/folder architecture for that, and it's not likely to appear in many places.

AzeS Posted February 11, 2018 Author Share Posted February 11, 2018 Ok, ill do it; what will work out the best for me?Sometimes I have: Split("\n", $foo); #and Split("\|", $bar); Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/306493-i-need-to-install-split-on-php7/#findComment-1556269 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solution requinix Posted February 11, 2018 Solution Share Posted February 11, 2018 split() worked using POSIX regular expressions, so you might need to look up what you find sometimes. However \n is a literal character and doesn't need regular expressions. explode("\n", $foo)"\|" is a literal pipe character and doesn't need regular expressions either. explode("|", $bar) 1 Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/306493-i-need-to-install-split-on-php7/#findComment-1556278 Share on other sites More sharing options...
mac_gyver Posted February 11, 2018 Share Posted February 11, 2018 3000 pages of php your time might be better spent properly implementing the site using data driven, server-side programming, so that there are only a few instances of any functional logic, that can be easily updated. 1 Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/306493-i-need-to-install-split-on-php7/#findComment-1556293 Share on other sites More sharing options...
