From: RQuadling at GMail dot com Operating system: Windows XP SP2 PHP version: 5.3CVS-2007-11-16 (snap) PHP Bug Type: CGI related Bug description: getopt doesn't handle unknown parameters.
Description: ------------ getopt() stops processing at the first unknown parameter. I'm not sure if this is ... a php bug - getopt should return them as is or ... a doc bug - getopt() will cease operation at the first hurdle. My preference is to return them as is. Maybe a third param to the function to collect unknown parameters. This would provide backward compatibility if the function didn't die when an unknown parameter was reached. The code is a simple test to examine the command line. Run this with this parameter -a 1 and then with these broken -a 1 Reproduce code: --------------- <?php var_dump($_SERVER['argv'], getopt('a:b', array('apple=', 'bag'))); ?> Expected result: ---------------- array(3) { [0]=> string(17) "C:\phpargtest.php" [1]=> string(2) "-a" [2]=> string(1) "1" } array(1) { ["a"]=> string(1) "1" } array(4) { [0]=> string(17) "C:\phpargtest.php" [1]=> string(6) "broken" [2]=> string(2) "-a" [3]=> string(1) "1" } array(1) { [0]=> string(6) "broken" ["a"]=> string(1) "1" } Actual result: -------------- array(3) { [0]=> string(17) "C:\phpargtest.php" [1]=> string(2) "-a" [2]=> string(1) "1" } array(1) { ["a"]=> string(1) "1" } array(4) { [0]=> string(17) "C:\phpargtest.php" [1]=> string(6) "broken" [2]=> string(2) "-a" [3]=> string(1) "1" } array(0) { } -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=43313&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 4.4): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=43313&r=trysnapshot44 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 5.2): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=43313&r=trysnapshot52 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 5.3): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=43313&r=trysnapshot53 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 6.0): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=43313&r=trysnapshot60 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=43313&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=43313&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=43313&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=43313&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=43313&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=43313&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=43313&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=43313&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=43313&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=43313&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=43313&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=43313&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=43313&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=43313&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=43313&r=float No Zend Extensions: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=43313&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=43313&r=mysqlcfg
