1.2.88. Break With Non Integer¶
When using a break, the argument of the operator must be a positive non-null integer literal or be omitted.
Other values were acceptable in PHP 5.3 and previous version, but this is now reported as an error.
<?php
// Can't break $a, even if it contains an integer.
$a = 1;
for($i = 0; $i < 10; $i++) {
break $a;
}
// can't break on float
for($i = 0; $i < 10; $i++) {
for($j = 0; $j < 10; $j++) {
break 2.2;
}
}
?>
