ID: 46385 Comment by: mail at bodograumann dot de Reported by: delilahblue at gmail dot com Summary: sscanf does not work with %b Status: Not a bug Type: Bug Package: Strings related Operating System: Gentoo Linux PHP Version: 5.2.6 Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: It seems that http://php.net/sscanf solves the documentation problem by saying The interpreted format for str, which is described in the documentation for sprintf() with following differences: F, g, G and b are not supported. So this bug can be closed. Although a new one might be opened as a feature request, if the "%b" is needed.
