Verified.
The workaround still works too.

PHP5.0.0 still exhibits this behaviour.
Is there anything else I can provide to help with this
issue/bug?
Thanks,
Rob

Anyone have any more current news on this bug?
The bug seems to still persist in php5 rc3. mastabog's suggestion of
padding the variable name with nulls for private, padding the * for
protected and nothing for public works, but seems like an ugly hack.
My biggest fear is when the bug is patched, my variable names will be
double padded and things will start to break.

Complete info on this bug:
To quote "rob at cue dot cc", you don't have to enclose only the class
name with null characters. As far as I've seen you have to enclose with
null chars ALL Php5 serialization identifiers of class properties types,
the ones I figured out to be for now (let x be the property name):
- class name if x is 'private' => "\0" . __CLASS__ . "\0x"
- * if x is 'protected' => "\0*\0x"
- nothing if x is 'public' => "x"
Here's what I mean:
<?php
class aTest
{
public $a = 'one';
protected $b = 'two';
private $c = 'three';
private $d = 'something you dont wanna save';
function __sleep()
{
return array("a",
"\0*\0b",
"\0aTest\0c");
// or
// return array("a",
// "\0*\0b",
// "\0" . __CLASS__ . "\0c");
}
}
?>
Anything else in the return array of __sleep() and the property will
come up empty after unserialization ... not nice.
My hope is that this is a bug, cus forming those strings with null
chars is just, well, ugly :)

Same problem here. And I'm downloading the CVS php5 version daily since
May 2003.
I assumed this was to be solved in a much later stage seeing that all
CVS releases (and all 4 betas of PHP5) had this bug.
In all my php5 projects i haven't use any __sleep() methods at all
because they weren't working.
I use php5 mainly with win32 and about once a week with Linux. Both
have this bug ... very irritating (I have some objects that make my
session file go up to 100kb, because i cant use __sleep(), which would
be large for a production site.)
