#41937 [NEW]: Documentation of ini_get() return values

From: zoe at uk dot ibm dot com Operating system: Linux PHP version: Irrelevant PHP Bug Type: Documentation problem Bug description: Documentation of ini_get() return values Description: ------------ This problem is related to defect 41922 and applies to both PHP5 and PHP6. A decision has been made not to fix 41922 because of possible impact on existing applications. I suggest that the following text is added to the documentation for ini_get(). Ini_get() will return a null string to indicate either (a) that the call to ini_get() has failed, or (b) that the value of the ini setting is a null string. Please see here: http://uk.php.net/manual/en/ini.php for a list of ini settings which have a null string as the default value. -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=41937&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 4.4): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41937&r=trysnapshot44 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 5.2): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41937&r=trysnapshot52 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 6.0): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41937&r=trysnapshot60 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41937&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41937&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41937&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41937&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41937&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41937&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41937&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41937&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41937&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41937&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41937&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41937&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41937&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41937&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41937&r=float No Zend Extensions: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41937&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41937&r=mysqlcfg
