ID: 18566 Comment by: holliwell@gmx.net Reported By: goba@php.net Status: Open Bug Type: Documentation problem Operating System: Windows PHP Version: 4.2.1 New Comment: with cgi-version(4.2.1, win2k): test.php a b c array(4) { [0]=> string(8) "test.php" [1]=> string(1) "a" [2]=> string(1) "b" [3]=> string(1) "c" } php test.php a+b+c array(4) { [0]=> string(8) "test.php" [1]=> string(1) "a" [2]=> string(1) "b" [3]=> string(1) "c" } php test.php a=b=c array(2) { [0]=> string(8) "test.php" [1]=> string(5) "a=b=c" } php test.php a;b;c array(2) { [0]=> string(8) "test.php" [1]=> string(5) "a;b;c" } Only a+b+c seems to bahave "strange". with cli-version(4.2.1,win2k): php-cli test.php a b c array(4) { [0]=> string(8) "test.php" [1]=> string(1) "a" [2]=> string(1) "b" [3]=> string(1) "c" } php-cli test.php a+b+c array(2) { [0]=> string(8) "test.php" [1]=> string(5) "a+b+c" } php-cli test.php a=b=c array(2) { [0]=> string(8) "test.php" [1]=> string(5) "a=b=c" } php-cli test.php a;b;c array(2) { [0]=> string(8) "test.php" [1]=> string(5) "a;b;c" ) The same results for cgi and cli version in 4.2.2 on win. Only a+b+c seems to be strange with the cgi. Friedhelm Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-08-13 07:26:47] edink@php.net This was one of the reasons CLI was created in the first place - to get rid of all CGI specific (mis)features. This issue should probably be mentioned in the command line chapter. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-08-13 07:21:20] goba@php.net I tested this with the CGI one, probably it's not a problem with the CLI. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-08-13 07:17:43] sander@php.net Is this still valid with the CLI? Or are you talking about the CGI executable? (Can't reproduce it with the CLI on Linux) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-07-25 11:41:21] goba@php.net The same effect is reproduceable with: php test.php a=b=c php test.php a;b;c Goba ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-07-25 11:35:56] goba@php.net I have tries the following script (test.php): <?php var_dump($argv); ?> With: php test.php a b c and the results are: array(4) { [0]=> string(8) "test.php" [1]=> string(1) "a" [2]=> string(1) "b" [3]=> string(1) "c" } What was new to me, is that php test.php a+b+c produces the same ;) So if this is intentional, then it should be documented at least ;) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=18566&edit=1
