Subject: What's the use of braces in a string literal?
Posted By: aaaa0441 Post Date: 1/6/2007 1:35:33 AM
I am currently reading "Professional PHP5", I encountered the following code and do not understand the use of the curly braces, "{}". Please tell me.

print "<h1>Individual - {$objEntity->__toString()}</h1>";

May the force be with you.

curly braces do not perform any role here
probably the auhor just tried to separate the "$objEntity->__toString()" from other content preventing it from getting messed up with other text
it's just for logical separation of "$objEntity->__toString()" from other content
