Improve example code to read ini shorthand #3084
Conversation
the existing example cannot handle any later added shorthand formats and is simply outdated when a dedicated standard function exists

This function is only available as of PHP 8.2, and the documentations covers PHP as of PHP 7.0.0.
So just replacing this line is not generally what we do. It might be better to rewrite the example completely to not try to compute the number of bytes.

Ok I missed that. What brought me initial here was the kinda confusing code comment in the example which became this way from a change removing all references to PHP 5 and 7 (a0ae28d).
Made me falsely believe PHP 7 isn't relevant here anymore. So it is to early for this change.

No worries :) That commit only removed references to PHP 7.0.0 as this is the new "baseline", There are still plenty of PHP 7.1.0 mentions :)
