ID: 42069 Updated by: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Reported By: mahesh dot vemula at in dot ibm dot com Status: Assigned Bug Type: PHP options/info functions Operating System: RHEL 4, Windows Xp PHP Version: 5CVS-2007-07-22 (CVS) Assigned To: jani New Comment:
Actually the manual is wrong, @ is allowed. Only the boolean operators shouldn't be allowed in non-quoted strings. I have rewritten most of the scanner (and parser) to allow pretty much anything in the ini values. Patch can be seen here: http://pecl.php.net/~jani/patches/new_ini_parser_scanner.patch I will commit this to HEAD and upcoming PHP_5_3 branches along with fixed tests plus some more tests. Only the ini keys can not have any non-alphanumeric characters in them, except for _ and . (dot). Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2007-07-22 15:41:19] mahesh dot vemula at in dot ibm dot com Description: ------------ PHP engine doesnt throw the expected parsing error (which is according to doc) with the input string given in parse.ini file containing [EMAIL PROTECTED] char and which is not included in double quotes (). Documentation says - Note: If a value in the ini file contains any non-alphanumeric characters it needs to be enclosed in double-quotes (") in http://in2.php.net/manual/en/function.parse-ini-file.php. And it is happening with many other Non-alpha numeric chars like #, %, &, +, -, `, ^, <, >, :, , _, ?, etc. For some of chars like !, ~, (), etc php throws parsing error which is expected according to doc.
