#16190 [Ver]: DBM Support on Windows truncates values

ID: 16190 Updated by: helly@php.net Reported By: holler@ergo-soft.com Status: Verified Bug Type: DBM/DBA related Operating System: Windows 2000 PHP Version: 4.3.0-dev New Comment: [marcus@zaphod php4-HEAD]$ php -r 'ini_set("magic_quotes_runtime",1);$db=dbmopen("db","n");dbmreplace($db,"7","alpha");var_dump(dbmfetch($db,"7"));dbmclose($db);' string(5) "alpha" My windowsXP reports: string(6) "lpha\0" that means the original length of the windows result is 5 "lpha" plus one zero byte. that implies the fetch function starts reading after 'a' or skips 'a' on windows. the only thing i can think of is fgets() returns the wrong filepointer on windows or read() starts reading at current offset +1. Maybe this is because we are mixing fgets with read perhaps we should use fgets twice.
