ID: 42396 Updated by: cataphr...@php.net Reported by: francois at tekwire dot net Summary: Followup to #36711: __halt_compiler() and unicode detection Status: Assigned Type: Feature/Change Request -Package: Feature/Change Request +Package: *General Issues Operating System: all PHP Version: 5.2.3 Assigned To: hirokawa Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: This bug describes more accurately the problem I attempted to solve with the patch for bug #53199. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2010-06-25 10:11:56] phofstetter at sensational dot ch somehow, recently, the default value of detect_unicode seems to have changed. With detect_unicode enabled, it's impossible to run any PHAR-file - neither through the CLI or through the web server. IMHO, this should really be looked into. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2007-08-27 08:38:58] j...@php.net IMHO, #42396 is not a bug, but it is the specification. The normal script doesn't contain a null byte if it is not encoded in Unicode. It is understandable the addition of a unique byte seqence '0xFFFFFFFF' detection to support PHAR/PHK, but it is a change to add a new feature.

Reclassified though. And assigned to the maintainer. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2007-08-23 16:24:33] francois at tekwire dot net Not sure it should be reclassified as mbstring related, as the bug is in Zend/zend_multibyte.c and has nothing to do with mbstring. PHP5 has a little unicode part in the engine. It even has an (undocumented) 'detect_unicode' option. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
