Bug #62773 [NEW]: fgets() is not binary safe

From: scott at smashcat dot org Operating system: Linux PHP version: Irrelevant Package: Documentation problem Bug Type: Bug Bug description:fgets() is not binary safe Description: ------------ fgets() does not load the binary data for unpack to process. If the fgets() function is replaced with fread() then the example below works as expected. The current documentation claims that fgets() is binary safe, which appears to be incorrect. Test script: --------------- <?php print "Saving...\n"; $F=fopen('1.evid','wb'); fwrite($F,pack('C6',65,66,67,68,69,70)); fclose($F); print "Loading...\n"; $F=fopen('1.evid','rb'); $d=unpack('C6',fgets($F,6)); print "Result: ".print_r($d,1)."\n"; print count($d)."\n"; fclose($F); Expected result: ---------------- It should display an array with 6 values, as written to the file. Actual result: -------------- No data is read, the array is empty. -- Edit bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=62773&edit=1 -- Try a snapshot (PHP 5.4): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=62773&r=trysnapshot54 Try a snapshot (PHP 5.3): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=62773&r=trysnapshot53 Try a snapshot (trunk): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=62773&r=trysnapshottrunk Fixed in SVN: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=62773&r=fixed Fixed in SVN and need be documented: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=62773&r=needdocs Fixed in release: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=62773&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=62773&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=62773&r=needscript Try newer version: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=62773&r=oldversion Not developer issue: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=62773&r=support Expected behavior: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=62773&r=notwrong Not enough info: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=62773&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=62773&r=submittedtwice register_globals: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=62773&r=globals PHP 4 support discontinued: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=62773&r=php4 Daylight Savings: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=62773&r=dst IIS Stability: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=62773&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=62773&r=gnused Floating point limitations: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=62773&r=float No Zend Extensions: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=62773&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=62773&r=mysqlcfg
