#31805 [NEW]: first kanji count 6 characters more than it should

From: gullevek at gullevek dot org Operating system: gnu/linux PHP version: 4.3.10 PHP Bug Type: mbstring related Bug description: first kanji count 6 characters more than it should Description: ------------ If you want to get a string length of a string with japanese kanji, then with 4.3.10 the first kanji counts 8 characters instead of 2. Any other double byte character afterwards is counted as 2 bytes. The problem is, mb_strlen should return only 1 and not 2. If I could with strlen there should be 2. I get the wrong return with all ways. With no default charset set, with default charset set, with giving charsets on the mb_strlen function, getting it via the mb_detect_encoding. It always returns the wrong length. This was not in versions before 4.3.10. -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=31805&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (php4): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=31805&r=trysnapshot4 Try a CVS snapshot (php5.0): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=31805&r=trysnapshot50 Try a CVS snapshot (php5.1): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=31805&r=trysnapshot51 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=31805&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=31805&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=31805&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=31805&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=31805&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=31805&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=31805&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=31805&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=31805&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=31805&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=31805&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=31805&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=31805&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=31805&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=31805&r=float No Zend Extensions: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=31805&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=31805&r=mysqlcfg
