Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-09-19 04:38:19] matthias.boldt@ticket-web.de There was an error in older versions (4.1.0) of the serializer code (it's possible the error is in the current code, too): some times, the element-count for objects was to hight. The old deserializer-code seams to ignore this problem. The new code has problems with that issue. We have many huge databases with serialized structures at some points. Thats why, we must use the old data :-( I've fixed the problem with a little change in ext/standard/var_unserializer.re, function process_nested_data : static inline int process_nested_data(UNSERIALIZE_PARAMETER, HashTable *ht, int elements) { while (elements-- > 0) { zval *key, *data; ALLOC_INIT_ZVAL(key); if (!php_var_unserialize(&key, p, max, NULL TSRMLS_CC)) { zval_dtor(key); FREE_ZVAL(key); } else { ALLOC_INIT_ZVAL(data); if (!php_var_unserialize(&data, p, max, var_hash TSRMLS_CC)) { zval_dtor(key); FREE_ZVAL(key); zval_dtor(data); FREE_ZVAL(data); } else { switch (Z_TYPE_P(key)) { case IS_LONG: zend_hash_index_update(ht, Z_LVAL_P(key), &data, sizeof(data), NULL); break; case IS_STRING: zend_hash_update(ht, Z_STRVAL_P(key), Z_STRLEN_P(key) + 1, &data, sizeof(data), NULL); break; } zval_dtor(key); FREE_ZVAL(key); } } } return 1; } Now, it doesn't have a problem with to hight element counters. It would be great, if the developer of the new deserializer-code could look at this change and eventually integrate it into the CVS-tree.
