Return Values

No value is returned.

Examples

Example 1358. A __halt_compiler() example

<?php

// open this file
$fp = fopen(__FILE__, 'r');

// seek file pointer to data
fseek($fp, __COMPILER_HALT_OFFSET__);

// and output it
var_dump(stream_get_contents($fp));

// the end of the script execution
__halt_compiler();the installation data (eg. tar, gz, PHP, etc.)


Notes

Note:

__halt_compiler() can only be used from the outermost scope.

Code Examples / Notes » halt_compiler

zsh

__halt_compiler() is a language construct and therefore cannot be used as a variable function.
Also, it cannot be used in eval() -- it won't throw a syntax error, but it won't do anything either.
