PHP Token names with values
This is a list of all PHP tokens and their represented values in decimal and hexadecimal. The list exists in the php.net site here https://www.php.net/manual/en/tokens.php but there are no values because these values may change for new releases. When writing token parsing code, we need token names and values, and I don’t want to dig into the source code to get the values.
Beware that many, if not all values, may be different along version; PHP 7 may not have the same values with PHP 8. Always use the constants, this is just for reference mainly for debugging.
You can also find and donwload the markdown and plain text versions on this gist.
So here is a list of all PHP 8.0 tokens and with their values.
