#35082 [NEW]: virtual() does not preserve variables from included shtml files

From: Christoph dot Freundl at informatik dot uni-erlangen dot de Operating system: Linux PHP version: 5.0.5 PHP Bug Type: Apache2 related Bug description: virtual() does not preserve variables from included shtml files Description: ------------ If you use virtual() to include an shtml file which sets an environment variable via <!--#set...-->, the set variable is not visible after the virtual() call. Reproduce code: --------------- setvar.shtml ------------------------------------------------- <!--#set var="myvar" value="myval" --> ------------------------------------------------- showvar.php ------------------------------------------------- <?php echo apache_getenv( "myvar" ); ?> ------------------------------------------------- info.shtml ------------------------------------------------- <!--#include virtual="setvar.shtml" --> <!--#include virtual="showvar.php" --> ------------------------------------------------- info.php ------------------------------------------------- <?php virtual( "setvar.shtml" ); echo apache_getenv( "myvar" ); ?> ------------------------------------------------- Expected result: ---------------- I expect that info.shtml and info.php should both give the same result, i.e. show "myval". However, info.shtml does but info.php does not. If this is a wanted behaviour (which I hope it is not), then at least the documentation of virtual() --- "virtual() is an Apache-specific function which is equivalent to <!--#include virtual...--> in mod_include." --- is wrong. -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=35082&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (php4): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=35082&r=trysnapshot4 Try a CVS snapshot (php5.0): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=35082&r=trysnapshot50 Try a CVS snapshot (php5.1): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=35082&r=trysnapshot51 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=35082&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=35082&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=35082&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=35082&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=35082&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=35082&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=35082&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=35082&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=35082&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=35082&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=35082&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=35082&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=35082&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=35082&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=35082&r=float No Zend Extensions: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=35082&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=35082&r=mysqlcfg
