Summary ⇒ Horde_Mime use preg_replace with eval
Type ⇒ Enhancement
State ⇒ New
From PHP documentation :
"Use of this modifier is discouraged, as it can easily introduce
security vulnerabilite"
"This feature has been DEPRECATED as of PHP 5.5.0. Relying on this
feature is highly discouraged"
So with PHP 5.5, Horde_Imap_Client test suite fails with
preg_replace(): The /e modifier is deprecated, use
preg_replace_callback instead
The attached patch use preg_replace_callback instead, with an
anonymous function (supported since php 5.3.0).
I understand than php 5.5 is not yet supported, but as this fix
doesn't change the requirement and is still compatible with previous
php version, I hope you will consider it.
