ID: 50419 Updated by: fa@php.net Reported By: petteyg359 at gmail dot com -Status: Bogus +Status: Open Bug Type: Documentation problem Operating System: Linux PHP Version: 5.3.1 New Comment: Needs to be documented. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2009-12-09 04:57:56] petteyg359 at gmail dot com In either case, the configure option still needs updating, since the description is wrong. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2009-12-09 04:56:37] petteyg359 at gmail dot com That information is not listed in http://php.net/mhash, http://php.net/hash, nor http://php.net/manual/en/migration53.php. A simple Google search for "mhash backward compatibility" returns zero results. If this is actually documented, please tell me where it is. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2009-12-09 04:06:13] aharvey@php.net Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at http://www.php.net/manual/ and the instructions on how to report a bug at http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php --enable-mhash enables the mhash backward compatibility layer within the hash extension, which allows the old mhash* functions to be used with the new extension. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2009-12-09 02:27:19] petteyg359 at gmail dot com Description: ------------ 5.3 changelog states that mhash has been removed. ./configure --help on 5.3.1 still lists --enable-mhash. Reproduce code: --------------- host01 build # ../configure --help | grep mhash Expected result: ---------------- host01 build # Actual result: -------------- --with-mhash=DIR Include mhash support host01 build # ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=50419&edit=1
