RE: [PHP-DEV] PHP 4.0 Bug #5646: fwrite() in CGI php.exe doesn't make a CR/LF for "\n" but just a linefeed char

Well I did a bit of checking about that on the web. \n is a newline. Here is what I found from a Perl reference at: http://www.google.com/search?q=cache:www.activestate.com/ActivePerl/docs/lib /Pod/perlport.html+cr/lf+windows+unix+convention+rule&hl=en --------------------- In most operating systems, lines in files are terminated by newlines. Just what is used as a newline may vary from OS to OS. Unix traditionally uses \012, one type of DOSish I/O uses \015\012, and Mac OS uses \015. LF == \012 == \x0A == \cJ == ASCII 10

    CR  ==  \015  ==  \x0D  ==  \cM  ==  ASCII 13

             | Unix | DOS  | Mac  |
        ---------------------------
        \n   |  LF  |  LF  |  CR  |
        \r   |  CR  |  CR  |  LF  |
        \n * |  LF  | CRLF |  CR  |
        \r * |  CR  |  CR  |  LF  |
        ---------------------------
        * text-mode STDIO

----------------------------------------------------------------- Since this is about the PHP CGI for Windows it is my understanding that the windows convention for a Newline \n is CR/LF for text mode IO. joel@intwebservices.com At 05:01 PM 7/17/00 -0400, you wrote:

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't \n just LF while \r is CR? So if you want CR/LF you need to do: $dataStr="text data"."\r\n"; $writeSuccess=fwrite ($textFilehandle, $dataStr); If it "worked" in the ISAPI module version, I suspect that the real bug report would be that fwrite was adding characters to the output when it runs as ISAPI.

Operating system: WINDOWS NT 4.0

PHP version:      4.0.1pl2
PHP Bug Type:     Misbehaving function

Bug description: fwrite() in CGI php.exe doesn't make a CR/LF for "\n" but just a linefeed char $dataStr="text data"."\n"; $writeSuccess=fwrite ($textFilehandle, $dataStr); The log file will have just a HEX "0a" char instead of HEX "0D 0A" . It worked ok for the ISAPI module but when I switched to the CGI php I noticed the difference. -- PHP Development Mailing List <http://www.php.net/> To unsubscribe, e-mail: php-dev-unsubscribe@lists.php.net For additional commands, e-mail: php-dev-help@lists.php.net To contact the list administrators, e-mail: php-list-admin@lists.php.net
