Oh thank you, thank you! I eventually wrote a patch for this bug seeing everyone avoided it. 10x again :) Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-08-21 16:15:07] [EMAIL PROTECTED] This bug has been fixed in CVS. Snapshots of the sources are packaged every three hours; this change will be in the next snapshot. You can grab the snapshot at http://snaps.php.net/. Thank you for the report, and for helping us make PHP better. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-08-03 02:23:32] mastabog at hotmail dot com I really *really* don't understand why this bug (it is a bug .. everyone sees it that way) doesn't get fixed. It's quite important ... Padding the variables with nulls and classname or * is not my suggestion or hack, it's what I've seen it does looking in the session file. Currently ther eis no other way to selectively save variables between sessions. Right now i'm using the Reflection API to autodetect property types and then construct the array for __sleep(). Hope I won't be force to develop too many of those ... For {albin at kth dot se}: the point of specifying which variables to save is quite easy to explain .. sometimes you only want to save a few out of a bunch of properties. Its easier to state those which you want to save than those which you don't. Of course, sometimes its the othr way around and you wish you had something to specify those you don't want. Here's where the Reflection API can help (see the Zend2 Engine changes, bottom: http://sitten-polizei.de/php/reflection_api/docs/language.reflection.html) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-07-28 15:21:01] albin at kth dot se What is even the point of __sleep being supposed to return an array of the properties that should be serialized? I think it would be much easier just to manually unset those variables that you DON'T want to serialize, and letting PHP serialize everything else. I thought __sleep was supposed just to be a way of closing database-connections etc, but due to the current implementation that seems almost impossible. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-07-18 13:44:42] [EMAIL PROTECTED] version info change ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-07-15 12:44:57] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Verified. The workaround still works too. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
