Bug #54058 [NEW]: json_last_error() doesn't work properly with arrays/objects

From: Operating system: Linux PHP version: 5.3.5 Package: JSON related Bug Type: Bug Bug description:json_last_error() doesn't work properly with arrays/objects Description: ------------ json_last_error() doesn't work properly in arrays/objects. If an error occurs when encoding a property/key, and it isn't the LAST property/key, json_last_error() is reset to 0. json_last_error() should report the last parsing error from the last json_encode() call AS AN ENTIRETY, not the last internal encoding step that takes place inside the function. Test script: --------------- $bad_utf8 = quoted_printable_decode('=B0'); json_encode($bad_utf8); print "ERROR: " . json_last_error() . "\n"; $a = new stdclass; $a->foo = quoted_printable_decode('=B0'); json_encode($a); print "ERROR: " . json_last_error() . "\n"; $b = new stdclass; $b->foo = $bad_utf8; $b->bar = 1; json_encode($b); print "ERROR: " . json_last_error() . "\n"; $c = array( 'foo' => $bad_utf8, 'bar' => 1 ); json_encode($c); print "ERROR: " . json_last_error() . "\n"; Expected result: ---------------- ERROR: 5 ERROR: 5 ERROR: 5 ERROR: 5 Actual result: -------------- ERROR: 5 ERROR: 5 ERROR: 0 ERROR: 0 -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=54058&edit=1 -- Try a snapshot (PHP 5.2): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=54058&r=trysnapshot52 Try a snapshot (PHP 5.3): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=54058&r=trysnapshot53 Try a snapshot (trunk): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=54058&r=trysnapshottrunk Fixed in SVN: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=54058&r=fixed Fixed in SVN and need be documented: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=54058&r=needdocs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=54058&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=54058&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=54058&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=54058&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=54058&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=54058&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=54058&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=54058&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=54058&r=globals PHP 4 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=54058&r=php4 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=54058&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=54058&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=54058&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=54058&r=float No Zend Extensions: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=54058&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=54058&r=mysqlcfg
