note 95535 added to function.preg-match

In response to rabby (28-Apr-2009 02:53), simply splitting long strings into smaller chunks to get around the segfault errors won't work if you are dealing with multi-byte encodings like UTF-8. If you split the string at arbitrary lengths, you may be splitting it in the middle of a multi-byte character. You'd either need to modify your splitting routine to look for multi-byte characters around the split boundary and make sure you are returning whole characters in each string, or find some other way around the segfault problem. ---- Server IP: 69.147.83.197 Probable Submitter: 66.186.116.126 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.preg-match.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/95535 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/95535/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/95535/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/95535/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/95535/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/95535/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/95535/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/95535 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/95535 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
