[Phpmyadmin-devel] PMA_SQP_parse() 'pos' attribute

[Chirayu Chiripal]

Hi,

the value 'pos' attribute as per phpdoc (sqlparser.lib.php, Line 65) is:
@param int    $pos      Position of an element

So, it should be the index of first character of the element but from [0]
it looks like it is set to index of the last character of element + 1.
Also, for quote_backtick types and few others the value of pos is 0.

What should be the appropriate value for pos?
(Considering 0-based indexing)
1. position of initial character of the element. (I personally prefer this
one).
2. position of last character of the element.
3. position of last character of the element + 1.

Is it used somewhere yet??, because changing its behaviour can cause side
effects.
