ID: 36034 User updated by: ian_c_web at thejolly dot demon dot co dot uk Reported By: ian_c_web at thejolly dot demon dot co dot uk -Status: Bogus +Status: Open Bug Type: Scripting Engine problem Operating System: NetBSD PHP Version: 5.1.2 New Comment:
Oops, my cut and paste badness. Still doesn't work as expected though, the 'Database' object is still being destroyed first. (Example script updated.) PS, no, didn't know about 'error_reporting(E_ALL);', cheers, that will be most useful. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2006-01-16 23:27:43] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Come up with a real script first. No bug here, you're trying to assing a non existing variable. Ever heard about "error_reporting(E_ALL);" ?? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2006-01-16 23:04:17] ian_c_web at thejolly dot demon dot co dot uk The bug is nothing to do with databases, it infact occured as I was trying to correctly close a result set. The issue is with an object being destroyed when still referenced. If you take a look at the example I provided you will see there is no database code involved, however the destructors are still not called in the expected order. (The 'Database' object's destructor is called whilst it is still referenced by the 'Recordset' object.) Please note the names I have used are purely semantic, there is no actual database code involved. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2006-01-16 18:48:55] [EMAIL PROTECTED] The engine doesn't know about "result sets" and "database objects", all it knows is that they are objects and they should be destroyed, so it's your responsibility to call resultset destructors before database destructors. No bug here, this is expected behaviour. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2006-01-16 17:18:47] ian_c_web at thejolly dot demon dot co dot uk Description: ------------ I have a class that abstracts a database connection, which returns a 'recordset' class for certain operations. The destructor of the recordset class calls the necessary free functions, which were issuing a 'warning: connection closed', which turned out to be related to the database object going out of scope first, and having it's destructor called. So I added a pointer to the database in the recordset, thinking this would keep the database in scope until the recordset was destroyed, but this did not seem to work. If I assigned the recordset to null (hence forcing destruction) everything works as required. I think this is a scoping issue within PHP itself, as it seems to be calling the destructor on the db object too early, although it doesn't seem to actually be destroying the object. (I can still refer to public variables within the object.) Reproduce code: --------------- http://thejolly.demon.co.uk/~ian/phptest.php.txt Expected result: ---------------- SpecificApp construct. Application construct. Database construct. (test: 5) ResultSet construct. ResultSet destruct. Database destruct. (test: 34) Application destruct. Actual result: -------------- SpecificApp construct. Application construct. Database construct. (test: 5) ResultSet construct. Application destruct. Database destruct. (test: 34) ResultSet destruct. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=36034&edit=1
