Bug #3915: exec() does not return last line as documented

From: zwerschke@urz.uni-heidelberg.de Operating system: Solaris 7 PHP version: 3.0.15 PHP Bug Type: Misbehaving function Bug description: exec() does not return last line as documented The exec() function does not return the last line from the result of the command as documented (see also Bug #3795), the function system() has the same problem. As far as I understand there is a bug in functions/exec.c The code for returning the last line should be changed to be something like this (I tried it and it works): /* Return last line from the shell command */ if (type!=3) { if (php3_ini.magic_quotes_runtime) { int len; tmp = _php3_addslashes(buf, 0, &len, 0); RETVAL_STRINGL(tmp,len,0); } else { RETVAL_STRING(buf,1); } }
