Re: [SMARTY-DEV] Bug in Smarty Compiler concerning constants?

Just an idea. You could also change the test function you use in the { 
if } tags to detect that it got the constant as a string.

class Example
{

    /**
    * Example function
    *
    * @access   public
    *
    * @param    integer|string
    *
    * @return   boolean
    */
    function hasPerm($perm)
    {
        if (is_string($perm)) {
            $perm = constant($perm);
        }
        if (is_integer($perm)) {
            if (($this->getUserPermissies() & $perm) == $perm) {
                    return TRUE;
            }
        }
        return FALSE;
    }

}
