Solve PHP4 to PHP5 ugrade error

Question

I have a client who have recently upgraded to PHP5. he have an error that says

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_CLONE, expecting T_STRING in ms/kernel/object.php on line 528

I am looking at the code but can't figure out why this is happening. Can any one please help me?

Open this file `object.php` and go to this line `528` and copy/paste that code—and maybe the surrounding lines—and then ask the question. — Giacomo1968, Feb 05 '13 at 12:58

Since you didn't provide code, I can only guess that you have classes using the now reserved keyword clone (from T_CLONE).

If you simply replace all instances of clone with aclone or clone1 or something, you'll be fine, albeit a very hacky solution. It's a key indicator that whatever library it is you're using was written specifically for PHP4 and has not been upgraded for 5.
