VS: [PHP-DEV] GIF support

[PHP-DEV] GIF support
A question popped into my mind. I know GD doesn't support GIF because of Unisys' license on the LZW compression format. Then how can ImageMagick support it? It would sure be nice with an API to ImageMagick (PHPMagick?) as found in Perl. Has anyone started on this before, then I would like to know about it. I could give it a go myself, but would rather not start from scratch. - Carsten -- PHP Development Mailing List http://www.php.net/ To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
SV: [PHP-DEV] [4.3] Current critical bugs
Maybe this is what you need? http://www.naken.cc/mikehup.php I use this on a CMS site, where the users upload imagefiles with ftp. After that, they use a php webinterface to start an importscript (written in Perl). By doing this command in php: system(/usr/local/bin/mikehup /usr/bin/perl /www/servers/netlag/cronscripts/import_billede.pl ); The importscript is started and executes in the background while the php-script finishes execution.

What is the suggested way to offer php developers the opportunity to run code after the connection has been closed? Even if it only works under Apache on Linux? Also if the 4.1.0 behavior is the correct behavior, why is the function still documented as the 4.0.x behavior? I'll admit that the company I work for is probably the only one using this function, but we depend on it. We do heavy image processing work, using image magick, called from clients using wireless networks, where it hurts us to keep connections open for long periods of time. If we can't fork some processing to the background, our users think our app is slow, and we lose sales. It's that simple. Correct behavior or not, we need the functionality. My patch, I hope, will be ready by the end of the week. Adding a parameter to the register_shutdown_function will not be possible, since the function was changed a while back to allow users to specify arguments to the function being registered. Instead a second function will be created: register_offline_function offering the 4.0.x behavior.

I have to go now, but I'll look at the rest of relevant bugs later today. -- PHP Development Mailing List http://www.php.net/ To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php -- PHP Development Mailing List http://www.php.net/ To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
SV: [PHP-DEV] Structures and PHP
I agree with Markus. PHP isn't C (although it resembles on some points), and
likewise you shouldn't use it, as you would C.
Play PHP by its own rules and use the language contructs made available to
you.
You could argue, that C only has structs because a) it is strongly typed and
therefore need a tool for complex datatypes and/or b) it doesn't implement
hashes in its core.

What I'm curious about is the possibility of making
something like this built in, for lack of a better term. I've
heard a number of C guys asking about this on some message boards
and came up with this as a result.
Is there a better way? What do you guys think?
Not really. Some also missuse objects for that purpose. heck,
I remember asking this question first when I came to PHP
years ago :) I got stuck to use arrays at first. Later and
never needed this anymore (stopped coding PHP like C) and
mainly used real objects etc.

Hm, very strange. You are absolutely right - I do not see any problems as
well. Not only with the current cvs but with the older phps also... But I
am sure I have seen some time ago exactly what was described by Carsten
Gehling. Maybe it is kind of group hallucination ;)
Try this:
===
?php
session_start();
session_register("c");
$HTTP_SESSION_VARS["c"] = $HTTP_SESSION_VARS["c"] + 1;
var_dump($HTTP_SESSION_VARS);
?
===
And try reloading the page a couple of times. With register_globals = Off,
the session variable "c" will be incrementing by one on each reload. With
register_globals = On, it will always be 1 (thereby showing, that it does
not exist when reloading).

Try this:

Or this, which is slightly more interesting:
?php
session_start();
session_register("c");
echo "#".SID."#br";
$HTTP_SESSION_VARS["c"] = $HTTP_SESSION_VARS["c"] + 1;
var_dump($HTTP_SESSION_VARS);
?
On the first run, SID is displayed in the browser, but when reloading the
page, SID is empty.
As a side note: I run PHP 4.0.4pl1 as CGI on Win2k IIS5.

Re: [PHP-DEV] Object Constructors in PHP
From: "Steven Roussey" [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, April 06, 2001 2:19 AM Subject: [PHP-DEV] Object Constructors in PHP Don't ask why it is this way, but say we have these files: snip code Bad bad BAD programmer! Go to your corner. :-) It runs fine printing 'hi' (though not with APC, but fine with Zend Cache). BUT, What _should_ happen? You mean from a PHP perspective or from an OOP perspective? Your example runs as expected. The contructur Outline_ForumStyle() calls the inherited method ForumStyle(). Nothing wrong with that. I think what would be more interesting is, what happens if you instantiate ForumStyle? $f = new ForumStyle(); From an OOP POV, there is no contructor, so nothing should happen. PHP OTOH recognises the inherited method ForumStyle() as having the same name as the class, thereby making it a contructor. Not good IMHO, but i think it stems from the fact that PHP does not have a keyword for explicitly defining contructors, like you find in Java or C++. One of the areas in PHP that still need some work is IMHO the OOP area. Some things are a bit too loosly defined - even for a script language. - Carsten -- 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]
Re: [PHP-DEV] RE: ; arg seperator
From: "Rasmus Lerdorf" [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, April 04, 2001 7:22 PM There was a discussion about things to break in 4.1. magic_quotes_gpc would definitely be my favourite. I'd like to see it set to off for good and removed from php.ini. I'd be completely against removing the concept of magic_quotes altogether. We can discuss changing the default, but for someone writing simple sql pages, it is extremely handy to have PHP deal with escaping stuff for you so you don't have a bunch of addslashes() calls everywhere. Agreed that it's handy and easy, but it's a two-edged sword. If you write scripts that should be distributed on many different servers, it takes a lot of code to account for both settings. I'm one of those control freaks ;) that like to be in total charge about what data goes in and out of my application. magic_quotes most certainly messes with that. There are so many other converting methods in PHP that you need to use, magic_quotes or not, (eg. urlencode/decode), so why must addslashes be a default? - Carsten -- 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]
