PHP version: 5.2.6
PHP Bug Type: MySQL related
Bug description: /* or -- no longer used as comment chars
Description:
------------
/* can no longer be used as a comment character to ignore all text after
this character (seems to only affect 5.2)
-- never worked as a comment character in previous version of PHP
Reproduce code:
---------------
$dbh = @mysql_connect ("localhost", "aaa", "aaa") or die ("Cannot connect
to DB");
mysql_select_db("test",$dbh) or die ("Cannot select DB");
$sql="select something from table /* dsfadsfasdfadfasdfasfdmkkn";
$result=mysql_query($sql,$dbh) or die ("Cannot submit query" .
mysql_error());
Expected result:
----------------
As similar to PHP 5.1 series, the above statement should run without
error. Note, -- should work but have never worked either.
Actual result:
--------------
SQL Error : 1064 You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual
that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use
near
