#27712 [NEW]: unserialize / Array access

From: hannes at phpug dot ch Operating system: Debian GNU/Linux PHP version: 5.0.0RC1 PHP Bug Type: Zend Engine 2 problem Bug description: unserialize / Array access Description: ------------ Unserialize works perfectly and produces an array with like array("0" => "foo"). The same serialized string gets unserialized differently in PHP4, there it's array(0 => "foo"). I cannot access the content of the PHP5 result, because it seems that my lookup for "1"(string) gets converted to one for 1 (int). Which fails. Tested with: -PHP 4.3.5RC2-dev (cli) (built: Jan 15 2004 16:58:31) -PHP 5.0.0RC2-dev (cli) (built: Mar 21 2004 17:58:48) I'm not sure if this is really something that needs to be fixed, unserialize works correctly, but not as expected. Reproduce code: --------------- <?php error_reporting(E_ALL); $serializedNames = 'a:2:{s:1:"0";s:6:"hubert";s:1:"1";s:5:"waldo";}'; $names = unserialize($serializedNames); var_export($names); //works, but... /* php5: array ( '0' => 'hubert', php4: array ( 0 => 'hubert', .. print($names["1"]); // php5: doesn't work. php4: works; print($names[1]); // php5: doesn't work php4: works; ?> Expected result: ---------------- array ( 0 => 'hubert', 1 => 'waldo', )waldowaldo Actual result: -------------- array ( '0' => 'hubert', '1' => 'waldo', ) PHP Notice: Undefined index: 1 in .... -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=27712&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (php4): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=27712&r=trysnapshot4 Try a CVS snapshot (php5): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=27712&r=trysnapshot5 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=27712&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=27712&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=27712&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=27712&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=27712&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=27712&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=27712&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=27712&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=27712&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=27712&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=27712&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=27712&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=27712&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=27712&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=27712&r=float
