note 43265 added to function.preg-replace-callback

Example given for preg_replace_callback with create_function have one flow - it consume a lot of memory. Each call to create_function allocate some memory to create a new function, and to the end of the script a lot of memory could be consumed, if there are many lines recieved from stdin. Of course after ending all memory will be freed, but I have been hanged up my computer processing 20Mb file with similar code on Windows. <?php $fp = fopen("php://stdin", "r") or die("can't read stdin"); while (!feof($fp)) { $line = fgets($fp); $line = preg_replace_callback('|<p>\s*\w|', // this will create as many new functions, as there are lines recieved create_function( '$matches', 'return strtolower($matches[0]);' ), // $line ); echo $line; } fclose($fp); ?> ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.preg-replace-callback.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+43265 Delete -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+43265&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+43265&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
