Bug description: var_export
Description:
------------
Seems like there has been a change to the var_export-function, when
comparing PHP4 and PHP5, as stated below:
PHP4
----
314 : case IS_DOUBLE:
315 8 : php_printf("%.*G", (int)
EG(precision), Z_DVAL_PP(struc));
> from: http://gcov.php.net/PHP_4_4/lcov_html/ext/standard/var.c.gcov.php
PHP5
----
407 : case IS_DOUBLE:
408 42 : php_printf("%.*H", (int)
EG(precision), Z_DVAL_PP(struc));
> from: http://gcov.php.net/PHP_5_2/lcov_html/ext/standard/var.c.gcov.php
Of some reason, the output don't give the same.
I don't know if it's PHP4 that has always had this problem, or if it's a
new problem only existing in PHP5.
However, it gives difficulties, if trying to compare the results or want
to output the results float-values to either JavaScript or Database. And
especially when trying to create scripts that should work on both
PHP-versions (4.x+5.x).
Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
$test_value = 1.50;
setlocale(LC_ALL, 'da_DK.iso-8859-1', 'da_DK', 'danish', 'da');
echo 'DK: ' . var_export($test_value, TRUE) . "\n";
setlocale(LC_ALL, 'en');
echo 'EN: ' . var_export($test_value, TRUE) . "\n";
echo "\n" . PHP_VERSION;
?>
Expected result:
----------------
DK: 1.5
EN: 1.5
Actual result:
--------------
DK: 1,5
EN: 1.5
