From: richard dot quadling at bandvulc dot co dot uk Operating system: Windows XP SP2 PHP version: 5.0.5 PHP Bug Type: PDO related Bug description: PDO creates an unnecessary INI entry.
Description: ------------ The PDO extension creates "pdo.global_value". http://lxr.php.net/source/pecl/pdo/pdo.c#86 to #97 and http://lxr.php.net/source/pecl/pdo/php_pdo.h#51 to #53 This global_value is picked up by the documentation as being a variable capable of being entered into the PHP.INI file. But it is useless. According to http://lxr.php.net/search?string=global_value In all the places where global_value applies to INI settings, it is commented out with the exception of the PDO file. Now, whilst this has absolutely no impact on the PDO library it DOES mean that specific code has to exist in the documentation processing scripts to filter out this entry. But fixing it simply involves putting some comments around the lines I've given above. -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=35330&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (php4): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=35330&r=trysnapshot4 Try a CVS snapshot (php5.0): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=35330&r=trysnapshot50 Try a CVS snapshot (php5.1): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=35330&r=trysnapshot51 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=35330&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=35330&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=35330&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=35330&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=35330&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=35330&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=35330&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=35330&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=35330&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=35330&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=35330&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=35330&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=35330&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=35330&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=35330&r=float No Zend Extensions: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=35330&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=35330&r=mysqlcfg
