The CSV version doesn't include this bug anymore.

Just one more thing : socket_bind() returns '' on success ...

This problem doesn't happens on w2k ...
It's w9x specific problem (win95 is also concerned).

PS: My test code was found in the documentation. I've updated my code
...
PS2: I'll look in the source and do some tries to find a way to fix
this bug (I have VC++, I could use another compiler but I have only
this one).

I know it's a bind error and if the IP is changed to "" no error
happens ...

Ok, I can't reproduce this on w2k (I don't have a w98 system to test).

First, try if it works on w2k for you. If it works, we know it's w98
system problem and we can dig furhter into that direction.

Second, your return checking's aren't very good. socket_create()
returns either resource or false, but not something which we would say
is '< 0'.

The same for socket_bind(), it returns an boolean, true or false,
nothing else.

(that's from the source, the documentation on php.net is outdated as
there have been recent changes to the sources).

The category has changed to PDF functions (I made a mistake while
filling the form ?? ).
Changing back to 'Socket related' ...

Here is a small example of script ...

if (($sock = socket_create (AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, 0)) < 0) {
  echo "socket_create() failed: reason: " . socket_strerror ($sock) .
"\n";
}
if (($ret = socket_bind ($sock, '127.0.0.1', 10000)) < 0) {
  echo "socket_bind() failed: reason: " . socket_strerror ($ret) .
"\n";
}

PHP crashes here, on the socket_bind command.
This script was found on the page about the socket functions. I've
downloaded the last RC version but it also crashes.
I have the window's dialog with 'Close', 'Debug' or 'Deltails
>>' ...
