                     s|ssbs

 New Comment:

s|ssbs means the functions takes a string as the required first argument and string string bool
string as optional arguments. The | just delimits required arguments from optional arguments.
zend_parse_parameters does not specify the return value type (actually the return value type
isn't specified anywhere, you just return it.)

sorry, I checked many times that I was not missing something and I don't 
understand your statement. can you please clarify? I am passing ssbs. my 
understanding is that s|ssbs means the function takes ssbs as arguments and returs 
s.

You are specifying "s|ssbs", but it's passing args for "s|sbs".

Description:
------------
zend_parse_parameters is having trouble parsing this signature: s|ssbs; the error happens with the
last "bs" arguments. the signature "ssbs" works well.

Test script:
---------------
PHP_FUNCTION(test_parse_parameters) {
  char *p_str1 = "";
  int p_str1_len;
  char *p_str2 = "";
  int p_str2_len;
  char *p_str3 = "";
  int p_str3_len;
  zend_bool b = 0;

  if (zend_parse_parameters(ZEND_NUM_ARGS() TSRMLS_CC, "s|ssbs", &p_str1,
&p_str1_len, &p_str2,
      &p_str2_len, &b, &p_str3, &p_str3_len) == FAILURE) {
    return;
  }

  zend_error(E_WARNING, "First parameter: len[%d] value[%s]", p_str1_len, p_str1);
  zend_error(E_WARNING, "Second parameter: len[%d] value[%s]", p_str2_len, p_str2);
  zend_error(E_WARNING, "Third parameter: '%s'", b ? "TRUE" :
"FALSE");
  zend_error(E_WARNING, "Fourth parameter: len[%d] value[%s]", p_str3_len, p_str3);

  char returnValue[256];
  char* result;
  sprintf(returnValue, "%d#%s", 0, "houston, we have a problem!");
  result = estrdup(returnValue);
  RETURN_STRING(result, 0);
}


Expected result:
----------------
lbernardo@sousel:~$ php -r 'echo test_parse_parameters("first", "second",
FALSE, "fourth");'
PHP Warning:  First parameter: len[5] value[first] in Command line code on line 1

PHP Warning:  Third parameter: 'FALSE' in Command line code on line 1
PHP Warning:  Fourth parameter: len[6] value[fourth] in Command line code on line 1

Actual result:
--------------
lbernardo@sousel:~$ php -r 'echo test_parse_parameters("first", "second",
FALSE, "fourth");'
PHP Warning:  First parameter: len[5] value[first] in Command line code on line 1
PHP Warning:  Second parameter: len[6] value[second] in Command line code on line 1
