Bug #16664 Updated: PHP crashes on socket_bind

ID: 16664 Updated by: mfischer@php.net Reported By: tech@kalyweb.com -Status: Closed +Status: Feedback Bug Type: Sockets related Operating System: Windows 9x PHP Version: 4.2.0 New Comment: Wait, did you test with CVS now?! It's supposed to ONLY return boolean false or true (from reading the source code). Can you verify this too please. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-04-18 09:27:38] tech@kalyweb.com Oops !! I made an error, socket_bind returns 1 on success. True = -1 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-04-18 09:17:28] tech@kalyweb.com The CSV version doesn't include this bug anymore. Just one more thing : socket_bind() returns '' on success ... ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-04-18 07:34:08] tech@kalyweb.com 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 ...

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 (that's from the source, the documentation on php.net is outdated as there have been recent changes to the sources). ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-04-18 06:20:11] tech@kalyweb.com The category has changed to PDF functions (I made a mistake while filling the form ?? ). Changing back to 'Socket related' ... ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
