About ext/sockets/

Since everybody seems to be using some stupid filters which filters all emails which have 'Bug' in the Subject I have to mail this again.. (Hint: There is X-PHP-Bug: header in those emails that come from bug system) Anyway, we have a problem. The sockets extension is seriously fucked up now. Some functions don't work at all and some work differently than before the renaming of the function names. ie. they return FALSE on errors now..before they returned -1. Good example: socket_listen() This is really bad thing and breaks every single script out there which uses these functions. It would be acceptable that the function names only needed to be changed, but now there has to be really big changes in the whole logic the scripts work. (even our example scripts on manual don't work) --Jani On 22 Jun 2001 lukas.beeler@projectdream.org wrote: >From: lukas.beeler@projectdream.org >Operating system: Slackware-current / Kernel 2.4.5 >PHP version: 4.0 Latest CVS (2001-06-22) >PHP Bug Type: Sockets related >Bug description: Socket function examples scripts aren't working with latest CVS > >After checking the renamed socket functions, i tried to get the sockets >example script running.
