#41909 [NEW]: var_export

From: stingbat at stingbat dot dk Operating system: Windows PHP version: 5.2.3 PHP Bug Type: Variables related Bug description: var_export Description: ------------ Seems like there has been a change to the var_export-function, when comparing PHP4 and PHP5, as stated below: PHP4 ---- 314 : case IS_DOUBLE: 315 8 : php_printf("%.*G", (int) EG(precision), Z_DVAL_PP(struc)); > from: > http://gcov.php.net/PHP_4_4/lcov_html/ext/standard/var.c.gcov.php PHP5 ---- 407 : case IS_DOUBLE: 408 42 : php_printf("%.*H", (int) EG(precision), Z_DVAL_PP(struc)); > from: > http://gcov.php.net/PHP_5_2/lcov_html/ext/standard/var.c.gcov.php Of some reason, the output don't give the same. I don't know if it's PHP4 that has always had this problem, or if it's a new problem only existing in PHP5. However, it gives difficulties, if trying to compare the results or want to output the results float-values to either JavaScript or Database. And especially when trying to create scripts that should work on both PHP-versions (4.x+5.x). Reproduce code: --------------- <?php $test_value = 1.50; setlocale(LC_ALL, 'da_DK.iso-8859-1', 'da_DK', 'danish', 'da'); echo 'DK: ' . var_export($test_value, TRUE) . "\n"; setlocale(LC_ALL, 'en'); echo 'EN: ' . var_export($test_value, TRUE) . "\n"; echo "\n" . PHP_VERSION; ?> Expected result: ---------------- DK: 1.5 EN: 1.5 Actual result: -------------- DK: 1,5 EN: 1.5 -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=41909&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 4.4): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41909&r=trysnapshot44 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 5.2): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41909&r=trysnapshot52 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 6.0): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41909&r=trysnapshot60 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41909&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41909&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41909&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41909&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41909&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41909&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41909&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41909&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41909&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41909&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41909&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41909&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41909&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41909&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41909&r=float No Zend Extensions: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41909&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41909&r=mysqlcfg
