ID: 10544 User Update by: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Status: Open Bug Type: Scripting Engine problem Description: if(!($res=OCIPLogon(...)) Serious problem... I checked out php4 today, and compiled it on windows and linux. The bang (!) in the if statement changes the resource to if(!($connection=ociplogon("scott","tiger","orcl"))) { var_dump($connection) = resource(1) of type (Unknown) w/out the bang(!) if(($connection=ociplogon("scott","tiger","orcl"))) { var_dump($connection) = resource(1) of type (oci8 connection) This code fails miserably: <? $connection=0; $statement=0; if(!($connection=ociplogon("scott","tiger","orcl"))) { echo "above result is false, so this will probably never happen<br>\n"; } var_dump($connection); $query = "select user from dual"; $statement=OCIParse($connection,$query); OCIExecute($statement); OCIFetch($statement); echo OCIResult($statement,1)."<br>\n"; OCIFreeStatement($statement); ?> if(!($connection=ociplogon("scott","tiger","orcl"))) Previous Comments: --------------------------------------------------------------------------- [2001-04-28 22:03:39] [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Full Bug description available at: http://bugs.php.net/?id=10544 -- PHP Development Mailing List <http://www.php.net/> To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
