PHP 4.0 Bug #6772 Updated: wrong documentaion for strrchr and strrpos

ID: 6772 Updated by: lyric Reported By: tjabo@unix-ag.org Status: Analyzed Bug Type: Documentation problem Assigned To: Comments: Which documentation are you using? The _body_ of the documentation for the functions you're talking about describes their return types correctly. (Yes, the one line summary is "find the last occurance of a char in a string", which is logically correct) Previous Comments: --------------------------------------------------------------------------- [2000-09-15 16:51:05] tjabo@unix-ag.org I haven't found this topic in the bug database. the docs say, both strrpos and strrchr "find the last occurance of a char in a string". thats wrong. - strrpos finds the last occurance of a string in a string, and returns the position. - strrchr finds the last occurance of a string in a string, and returns the string from the position up to the end. Testprogram: <h1>strrchr() / strrpos()</h2> <? # sttrchr/strrpos documentation bug # testprogram # Author: tjabo@unix-ag.org $haystack = "bla.deoa.se_blah.deschnorg"; $needle = ".de"; $needle2 = 'o'; print "Haystack = $haystack<br>n"; print "Needle = $needle<br>n"; print "strrchr: " . strrchr($haystack, $needle) . "<br>n"; print "strrpos: " . strrpos($haystack, $needle) . ":" . substr($haystack,strrpos($haystack, $needle),strlen($needle)) .
