PHP 4.0 Bug #9303: read() called with 'length' parameter reads until byte with ascii 10 or 13

From: yuri.ismailov@era.ericsson.se Operating system: RedHat Linux PHP version: 4.0.4pl1 PHP Bug Type: Sockets related Bug description: read() called with 'length' parameter reads until byte with ascii 10 or 13 read($sockfd, $in, $length); If I read an arbitrary byte stream from the socket and it happens to be ascii code (decimal) 10 or 13, the length parameter does not have any affect on the number of bytes read from the socket. It stops at the first occurence of the "magic" byte. To continue reading you have to call read again. It does not look like so in the manual for the read() function. However, bytes following ascii \0 and \t are succesfully read. Is this is the feature or a bug? PHP compiled --with-apxs --enable-sockets -- Edit Bug report at: http://bugs.php.net/?id=9303&edit=1
