PregQuoteUsage

error on by default

Group: Probable bugs · PhpStorm name: PregQuoteUsageInspection

preg_quote() only escapes the pattern delimiter when it is given as the second argument. Called with a single argument, a / or # inside the quoted text breaks the surrounding pattern.

Example

<?php
$re1 = '~' . preg_quote($needle) . '~i';
$re2 = preg_quote ( $host );
$re3 = '@^' . preg_quote($path, '@') . '$@';
$re4 = $quoter->preg_quote($needle);

Reported:

• line 2: Pass the pattern delimiter to preg_quote() as its second argument.
• line 3: Pass the pattern delimiter to preg_quote() as its second argument.

Configure

In custos.json:

{
  "rules": {
    "PregQuoteUsage": {
      "enabled": false
    }
  }
}

Suppress

Before the statement or declaration (or the first statement of the file), either of:

// @custos-ignore PregQuoteUsage

/**
 * @noinspection PregQuoteUsageInspection
