A Slice constant maps to a PHP constant. Consider the following definitions:
| Wiki Markup |
|---|
{zcode:slice}
module M {
const bool AppendByDefault = true;
const byte LowerNibble = 0x0f;
const string Advice = "Don't Panic!";
const short TheAnswer = 42;
const double PI = 3.1416;
enum Fruit { Apple, Pear, Orange };
const Fruit FavoriteFruit = Pear;
};
{zcode} |
The mapping for these constants is shown below:
| Wiki Markup |
|---|
{zcode:php}
define('M_AppendByDefault', true);
define('M_LowerNibble', 15);
define('M_Advice', "Don't Panic!");
define('M_TheAnswer', 42);
define('M_PI', 3.1416);
define('M_FavoriteFruit', M_Fruit::Pear);
{zcode} |
An application refers to a constant using its flattened name:
| Wiki Markup |
|---|
{zcode:php}
$ans = M_TheAnswer;
{zcode} |
Using the namespace mapping, Slice constants are mapped to PHP constants in the enclosing namespace:
| Wiki Markup |
|---|
{zcode:php}
$ans = \M\TheAnswer;
{zcode} |
