From: a dot schilder at gmx dot de Operating system: Irrelevant PHP version: Irrelevant PHP Bug Type: Documentation problem Bug description: Error in version_compare() example Description: ------------ The first two examples for version_compare() are wrong - the code does not match the printed text ("at least" although the check matches greater versions). Reproduce code: --------------- --- From manual page: function.version-compare --- <?php if (version_compare(PHP_VERSION, '6.0.0') === 1) { echo 'I am at least PHP version 6.0.0, my version: ' . PHP_VERSION . "\n"; } if (version_compare(PHP_VERSION, '5.3.0') === 1) { echo 'I am at least PHP version 5.3.0, my version: ' . PHP_VERSION . "\n"; } ?> Expected result: ---------------- <?php if (version_compare(PHP_VERSION, '6.0.0') >= 0) { echo 'I am at least PHP version 6.0.0, my version: ' . PHP_VERSION . "\n"; } if (version_compare(PHP_VERSION, '5.3.0') >= 0) { echo 'I am at least PHP version 5.3.0, my version: ' . PHP_VERSION . "\n"; } ?> OR <?php if (version_compare(PHP_VERSION, '6.0.0') === 1) { echo 'I am greater PHP version 6.0.0, my version: ' . PHP_VERSION . "\n"; } if (version_compare(PHP_VERSION, '5.3.0') === 1) { echo 'I am greater PHP version 5.3.0, my version: ' . PHP_VERSION . "\n"; } ?> OR BOTH... Actual result: -------------- PHP 5.3.0: (no output) PHP 5.3.1: I am at least PHP version 5.3.0, my version: 5.3.1 PHP 6.0.0: I am at least PHP version 5.3.0, my version: 6.0.0 PHP 6.0.1: I am at least PHP version 6.0.0, my version: 6.0.1 I am at least PHP version 5.3.0, my version: 6.0.1 -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=50381&edit=1 -- Try a snapshot (PHP 5.2): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50381&r=trysnapshot52 Try a snapshot (PHP 5.3): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50381&r=trysnapshot53 Try a snapshot (PHP 6.0): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50381&r=trysnapshot60 Fixed in SVN: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50381&r=fixed Fixed in SVN and need be documented: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50381&r=needdocs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50381&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50381&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50381&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50381&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50381&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50381&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50381&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50381&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50381&r=globals PHP 4 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50381&r=php4 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50381&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50381&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50381&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50381&r=float No Zend Extensions: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50381&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=50381&r=mysqlcfg
