#31314 [Bgs->Opn]: wrong translation

ID: 31314 Updated by: derick@php.net Reported By: yury at gorodok dot net -Status: Bogus +Status: Open -Bug Type: ICONV related +Bug Type: Documentation problem Operating System: Windows PHP Version: 5.0.2 New Comment: Add //ignore to the target charset, like: "windows-1251//ignore" and it will just skip the character. IMO this should be put more clearly into the documentation. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-01-10 21:48:32] tony2001@php.net iconv() stops on illegal character. That's not PHP problem, it's usual behaviour of libiconv. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-12-29 14:46:55] yury at gorodok dot net Here is the full script: (the files on which I've experienced the bug, I've pointed earlier) <?php // UTF->WIN if ( count($argv)< 2) { echo "\n2 arguments needed!\n"; exit; } $fns=$argv[1]; $fnts=$argv[2]; $f=fopen($fns, "rb"); $ff=fopen($fnts, "wb"); $flen=filesize($fns); $fstr=fread($f, $flen); echo $flen."\n"; $ffstr=iconv("UTF-8","windows-1251",$fstr); echo strlen($ffstr)."\n"; echo fwrite($ff,$ffstr/*,strlen($ffstr)*/)."\n"; fclose($ff); fclose($f); ?> ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-12-28 22:07:59] tony2001@php.net Thank you for this bug report. To properly diagnose the problem, we need a short but complete example script to be able to reproduce this bug ourselves. A proper reproducing script starts with <?php and ends with ?>, is max. 10-20 lines long and does not require any external resources such as databases, etc. If possible, make the script source available online and provide an URL to it here. Try avoid embedding huge scripts into the report. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-12-28 16:17:20] yury at gorodok dot net Just not using third parameter in fwrite() _doesn't_help_ a bit! All lines with mbstring were (and are) commented out; I cann't see it in my phpinfo()-- so, I cann't say what value mbstring.func_overload has. Here is the code, that doesn't work now: $f=fopen($fns, "rb"); $ff=fopen($fnts, "wb"); $flen=filesize($fns); $fstr=fread($f, $flen); echo $flen."\n"; $ffstr=iconv("UTF-8","windows-1251",$fstr); echo strlen($ffstr)."\n"; echo fwrite($ff,$ffstr/*,strlen($ffstr)*/)."\n"; fclose($ff); fclose($f); Also, for some other files (that translated good), there was no problem with length. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-12-27 19:40:02] tony2001@php.net You have mbstring.func_overload turned On, thus strlen() returns number of characters, not bytes. Turn it off or just don't use third parameter of fwrite(). ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
