Changelog

Version Description
5.3.1 Windows only: Core constants are categorized under Core, previously mhash.
5.3.0 Core constants are categorized under Core, previously internal. On Windows, the Core Constants are categorized under mhash.
5.2.11 The categorize parameter now operates appropriately. Previously, the categorize parameter was interpreted as !is_null($categorize), making any value other than NULL force the constants to be categorized.
