Bug #13831 Updated: Assigning to multi-dimensional $HTTP_SESSION_VARS array not restored

ID: 13831 Updated by: sniper Reported By: shelby@DownloadFAST.com Old Status: Feedback Status: Closed Bug Type: Session related Operating System: FreeBSD 4.2 PHP Version: 4.0.6 New Comment: I asked to test the latest CVS as I _assume_ this was a bug that was just recently FIXED there. I had tested it with my scripts and so had couple of other people. Reopen with a short example script if you can not reproduce this with the snapshot. --Jani Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2001-11-27 05:41:35] jmoore@php.net Firstly we are here as voulenteers, we ask for your help as if you have reported a bug and we ask you to test with latest cvs it takes you ten maybe twenty mins to test it on your machine where you already have code available and set up, for us to set up things in an envornment similar to EVERY bug report we see it would take us a long time and thus less bugs would get fixed. Form the looks of your script it looks like an error in your scripting to me but without seeing a smaple of your code I cant confirm this, please post the shortest test script possible that reproduces this behaviour. We dont have hours to hunt for your bug and how to reproduce it or write scripts to reproduce it, if you dont want to test latest CVS then at least provide us with the shortest code snippet possible that reproduces the bug. Make sure that script has as few dependencies as posssible (IE no database connections, no special extensions and no includes.) To be honest if you dont want to do either of the above its VERY unlikley any of use will be bothered to try and fix this for you either. And dont complain its the way we work, mozzila works and many other opensource projects work. - James ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2001-11-27 00:57:06] cnewbill@php.net Yes, it is the way he and most of the people who volunteer their time goes about it. The source is constantly changing and chances are pretty good if you've found a bug; one of the millions of other PHP users has found it as well and it's already been fixed or is known of. So if you could take 10 minutes of your valuable time and perform a simple, concise test, then we would know if it is indeed still present in the code. It may not be the most efficient system, but it works better if everyone does what they can. If you're persistent on being anal about this, send me (cnewbill@elementalrain.com) your script(s) and I will test it myself. -Chris ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2001-11-27 00:51:08] shelby@DownloadFAST.com BTW, nothing is free. Not even ignorance. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2001-11-27 00:48:33] shelby@DownloadFAST.com Who is freeloading? I reported the bug already and gave a concise example. Now sniper wants to mark it closed so he asked me to do more work, knowing if I don't respond he will mark it closed. I've seen his pattern in other bugs. Seems like sniper is the active person here, so I assume he must be the QA guy in charge here. If he wants to find out if it was fixed in latest CVS, he should test it, not order me to do more work. I made a contribution by taking the time to make the concise bug report. I don't need the bug fixed. I posted the bug to help out by giving a more concise example of a bug posted by another person. I was trying to help sniper test it more quickly. He shows his appreciation by ordering me to test it. Sigh 2x ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2001-11-27 00:29:10] cnewbill@php.net Maybe you should appreciate the fact that this is a "free" service and if your time is so valuable that you can't put in a percentage of what you get out then you are more than welcome to pay for commercial support http://www.zend.com/store/products/zendsupport.php.
