How to use EOD as a array value

Question

How to use EOD , heredoc as a string array value?

class W
{
    const ERROR = [ 
    'en'=>'<<<EOD 
    error no: %s. 
    EOD'
    ];

    public function a(){
        $message = sprintf(self::ERROR['en'], '1');
        echo $message;
    }

}
$b = new W;
$b->a();

result in:

<<<EOD 
error no: 1. 
EOD

I need:

error no: 1.

@NiettheDarkAbsol I meant you cannot do it with quotes, but I intended to answer something similar to yours) — u_mulder, Jul 15 '17 at 10:26

HEREDOC doesn't take quotes.

    'en' => <<<EOD
error no: %s.
EOD
    ];

Note that there must be no space before the EOD marker, nor must there be anything after it.

If you want multiple array elements like this, you will need to put the comma separating the elements on a separate line.

    'en' => <<<EOD
error no: %s.
EOD
  , 'fr' => <<<EOD
erreur nº: %s.
EOD
    ]

so I can't use more than one array element? – user6827096 Jul 15 '17 at 10:25

You can. However, the comma separating elements will need to be on the line *after* the `EOD`. – Niet the Dark Absol Jul 15 '17 at 10:28
