note 95061 added to function.apc-add

Please note that, the above given example <?php $bar = 'BAR'; apc_add('foo', $bar); var_dump(apc_fetch('foo')); echo "\n"; $bar = 'NEVER GETS SET'; apc_add('foo', $bar); var_dump(apc_fetch('foo')); echo "\n"; ?> Will not display string(3) "BAR" string(3) "BAR" Because you are trying to add different value(or variable) by using same key (named ‘foo’). As per my understanding the output should be string(3) "BAR" bool(false) According to apc_add() specification it is ok. If you want to store value by using same key, your code should be <?php $bar = 'BAR'; apc_add('foo', $bar); var_dump(apc_fetch('foo')); echo "\n"; $bar = 'NEVER GETS SET'; apc_store('foo', $bar); var_dump(apc_fetch('foo')); echo "\n"; ?> ---- Server IP: 69.147.83.197 Probable Submitter: 120.50.18.210 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.apc-add.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/95061 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/95061/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/95061/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/95061/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/95061/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/95061/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/95061/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/95061 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/95061 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
