Unique Variable Names
#1

Hi.
Commentics work on other simple php_script.
Ex.hello.php
<?
echo 'hello';
?>

But,Commentics doesn't work on a complex/advanced PHP program.

MayBe Variable scope truble.
Commentics's variable that has already been used is used.
Ex. $page_id,$database,
defined SUCCESS_TEXT,TODAY,YESTERDAY

Please use Unique(peculiar) name Variable.
Ex.
$page_id --> $cmtics_page_id
$database --> $c3tics_database
SUCCESS_TEXT --> CTICS2010_SUCCESS_TEXT

Hi, a similar bug has been reported about the function names. This will be fixed in the next release. I can understand how the defined text could be an issue but are you sure that the variable names are causing a problem as well?

Hi.
Overlaps/Repetition(already been used is used)..
It is very difficult to find it.
Because it is grammatically correct. No Error
Being possible to do .add defined(),issset(),unset(),empty()..

A temporary/tentative method of settlement..
Unique(peculiar) name ..
Ex.
clean_url() --> cmtx_clean_url()
$page_id --> $cmtics_page_id

BUT,A fundamental method of settlement..
class definitions/Object-oriented
http://www.php.net/manual/en/language.oop5.basic.php
Like PEAR(PHP Extension and Application Repository).
If developed, It is possible to become one of the most excellent comment systems.

I have studied OOP in depth but I'm a procedural programmer and I don't envisage that changing so it's unlikely that you will ever see any classes in Commentics.

From what I understood, you're suggesting taking a more object-oriented approach by using classes. That actually is a good idea, but it will take some time to rewrite the script which probably won't happen by the next version. Variables shouldn't be a problem unless some script that pretty much makes the web page is wrapped around Commentics (sorry if I explained it badly). What currently is being done is adding "cmtx_" in front of each function to avoid conflicts with other scripts. Not sure whether or not variables will be changed, but it might be worth it.

EDIT: well, Steven beat me to the post while I was writing mine.

I'm giving you three guesses...

The defined text could definitely be a problem because an error will be displayed if any code attempts to re-define something. However it's not clear from utaka's post (at least to me anyway) whether this has actually happened or whether it could in theory happen.
