#47755 [NEW]: get_resource_type() returns bool false on valid resource

From: jbricci at gmail dot com Operating system: Windows PHP version: 5.2.9 PHP Bug Type: *General Issues Bug description: get_resource_type() returns bool false on valid resource Description: ------------ get_resource_type() returns bool false on a valid resource handle. Reproduce code: --------------- <?php $host = 'localhost'; $user = 'user'; $pass = 'pass'; $dbpn = 'database'; $connection = mysqli_connect ( $host, $user, $pass, $dbpn ); if ( ! $connection ) { echo 'bad connection'; exit (); } var_dump ( get_resource_type ( $connection ) ); mysqli_close ( $connection ); ?> Expected result: ---------------- I expect... string(unknown) Because it seems that mysqli_() is not in the (List of Resource Types) supported. But it would be nice if mysqli_() and the rest of the database extensions that PHP supports were added to the (List of Resource Types) supported. Actual result: -------------- I get.. bool(false) [23-Mar-2009 15:07:18] PHP Warning: Supplied argument is not a valid resource handle in X:\http\docs\test.php on line [17] Which clearly states that $connection is not a valid resource, when it really is! -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=47755&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 5.2): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=47755&r=trysnapshot52 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 5.3): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=47755&r=trysnapshot53 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 6.0): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=47755&r=trysnapshot60 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=47755&r=fixedcvs Fixed in CVS and need be documented: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=47755&r=needdocs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=47755&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=47755&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=47755&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=47755&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=47755&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=47755&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=47755&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=47755&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=47755&r=globals PHP 4 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=47755&r=php4 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=47755&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=47755&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=47755&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=47755&r=float No Zend Extensions: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=47755&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=47755&r=mysqlcfg
