Bug description: Special characters in section name breaks parse_ini_file
Description:
------------
PHP 5.3 changes to parse_ini_*() functions breaks scripts that have
special characters, {}|&~![()^", in the section titles. (Previous versions
worked, which I assume was proper behavior because section titles can have
those characters according to community understood INI standards).
There is no documentation stating that special characters can not be used
in section titles. While the INI_SCANNER_RAW parameter provides an opening
for a workaround for this solution, to be useful, the characters
{}|&~![()^" should be usable in section titles (not to be confuse with
keys, where they shouldn't be used).
Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
$tmpfname = tempnam("/tmp", "FOO");
file_put_contents($tmpfname, '[Ask]
Crawler=true
[Mozilla/?.0 (compatible; Ask Jeeves/Teoma*)]
Crawler=true
');
$array = parse_ini_file($tmpfname, true);
print_r($array);
unlink($tmpfname);
Expected result:
----------------
Array
(
[Ask] => Array
(
[Crawler] => 1
)
[Mozilla/?.0 (compatible; Ask Jeeves/Teoma*)] => Array
(
[Crawler] => 1
)
)
Actual result:
--------------
Warning: parse error, expecting `']'' in FOOFCCA.tmp on line 4 in
parseBug.php on line 10
