ID: 62189 Comment by: Sjon at hortensius dot net Reported by: mg at ovos dot at Summary: Behavior of serialize has changed Status: Open Type: Bug Package: Variables related Operating System: Win64 PHP Version: 5.4.3 Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: Maybe you misread my comment, or misinterpreted the results demonstrated. I can reproduce your described behavior perfectly using the script I posted. In the results I posted, 5.4 references only Placeholder#8 and #10, while 5.3 and earlier contains references to Placeholder#8, #10, #12 and #14; demonstrating what was fixed in 5.4 again, this behaviour is better in 5.4 and there is no bug demonstrated in that script Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2012-06-23 21:13:52] mg at ovos dot at Dear Sjon, You stripped it from the key lines, no wonder you cannot reproduce it. It is all about the lines that you removed. Cheers, Marcin ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2012-06-23 14:25:15] Sjon at hortensius dot net Have a look at this example (based on your code): http://3v4l.org/D7HIa Before 5.4, the Placeholder instances were actually different objects. This was fixed in 5.4, therefore the properties correctly reference to the same objects. Regarding your bug, where objects are NOT properly recreated, I am afraid you will need to create an actual reproducable testcase before expecting anyone to take a look at it :) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2012-06-12 12:45:06] mg at ovos dot at Feedback -> Open. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2012-06-04 14:09:11] mg at ovos dot at Please have a look at the following scenario: http://pastebin.com/QRWtX0dM Of course such double serialization makes no sense, but I found it to be present in Doctrine 1.2 library. Therefore I am wondering if the references should still work in this case like it was in PHP 5.3. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2012-05-30 17:22:12] mg at ovos dot at It seems that my issue is directly related to fixing a bug in PHP: https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=36424 If this is true, the test case I included does not cover entirely the issue I am having. In my case unserialize() does not bring back the referenced object, although the test case does. I had no luck in extracting my scenario into a test case as yet. I am trying to find the difference between test case and the live case, which is obviosly many times more complex. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
