Bug description: Cannot create escaped character from multiple strings
Description:
------------
Let's say I have a variable $var which contains 94.
Now I want to create the escaped character \x94 from this var. This seems
to be impossible. I've tried all kinds different approaches. Simply
concatenating two strings (single or double quoted). escaping the \x with
\ sprintf()'ing etc. It seems like it's impossible to create the escaped
character from 2 (or more) parts.
At the moment I'm using a dirty fix to overcome this problem:
I have an array like this:
array(
"\\x00"=>"\x00",
"\\x01"=>"\x01",
"\\x02"=>"\x02",
"\\x03"=>"\x03",
etc..
)
with this aray you can perform a strtr(); Which works around the problem.
