Bug #76679 [Opn->Csd]: mb_http_input does not default to default_charset

Edit report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=76679&edit=1 ID: 76679 User updated by: ASchmidt at Anamera dot net Reported by: ASchmidt at Anamera dot net Summary: mb_http_input does not default to default_charset -Status: Open +Status: Closed Type: Bug Package: mbstring related Operating System: Win x64 PHP Version: 7.2.8 Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: Sorry - unexpected syntax variation for mb_http_input(). Works correctly with var_dump( mb_http_input('I') ); // ['UTF-8'] Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2018-07-29 22:51:32] ASchmidt at Anamera dot net Description: ------------ According to documentation on "default-charset" ( http://php.net/manual/en/ini.core.php#ini.default-charset): "The value of default_charset will also be used to set the default character set for ... mbstring functions if the mbstring.http_input mbstring.http_output mbstring.internal_encoding configuration option is unset." This is true EXCEPT for mbstring.http_input! Querying all other settings will properly return "UTF-8" from the default-charset, but querying mbstring.http_input will return FALSE! Test script: --------------- <?php declare(strict_types=1); var_dump( ini_get( 'default_charset' ) ); // UTF-8 var_dump( mb_internal_encoding() ); // UTF-8 var_dump( mb_http_output() ); // UTF-8 var_dump( mb_http_input() ); // FALSE var_dump( mb_regex_encoding() ); // UTF-8 Expected result: ---------------- mb_http_input() should return the explicitly set default_charset (e.g., UTF-8). Actual result: -------------- mb_http_input() returns FALSE, even if default_charset is set to UTF-8. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=76679&edit=1
