Hi,

on http://www.php.net/manual/en/features.commandline.php is writen:
STDERR - An already opened stream to stderr. This saves opening it with:
<?php
$stderr = fopen('php://stderr', 'w');
?>


But this does not work:
#! /usr/local/bin/php505 -q
<?php
fwrite(STDERR, "error!\n");
?>


This does work:
#! /usr/local/bin/php505 -q
<?php
define('STDERR', fopen('php://stderr', 'w'));
fwrite(STDERR, "error!\n");
?>


Is the manual wrong or does php 5.0.5 have change this property ?

Thanks
