#18050 [Com]: asort not sorting properly

ID: 18050 Comment by: long@ku.edu Reported By: bstoppel@ku.edu Status: Feedback Bug Type: Arrays related Operating System: Digital UNIX V4.0F (Rev. 1229) PHP Version: 4.2.1 New Comment: I'm the person responsible for PHP on bstoppel's system. I've just built php4-200208201200 and it looks like asort() is working properly again. However, I'm seeing this message when running php: Unaligned access pid=26595 <php> va=0x1400b701c pc=0x12025d930 ra=0x12025d040 inst=0xb4010000 which indicates an unaligned memory access. I couldn't build zend_API.c without adding an #include "php.h" to get the macro re-definition of snprintf() but I was told that could be a "bad" thing to do so perhaps that is causing the unaligned memory accesses...

BTW - before upgrading to 4.21, we were using 4.06 and the sort function worked fine. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-06-28 14:37:09] rasmus@php.net Hrm.. On my Linux box your script outputs: c = apple b = banana d = lemon a = orange Are you on a 64-bit platform? I'm looking at the zend_qsort() function but I don't see an obvious mistake. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-06-28 14:28:17] bstoppel@ku.edu I used the example given in the asort documentation. The result is not correct. Here is the example for your convenience: $fruits = array ("d"=>"lemon", "a"=>"orange", "b"=>"banana", "c"=>"apple"); asort ($fruits); reset ($fruits); while (list ($key, $val) = each ($fruits)) { echo "$key = $val\n"; } The actual output is d = lemon a = orange b = banana c = apple The expected output is c = apple b = banana d = lemon a = orange ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=18050&edit=1
