From: Operating system: PHP version: 5.3.3RC3 Package: JSON related Bug Type: Bug Bug description:json_encode display_errors dependency
Description: ------------ Invalid UTF-8 string throws E_WARNING depending on the configuration directive display_errors: ini_set('display_errors', 0); json_encode("\xFF"); // PHP Warning: json_encode(): Invalid UTF-8 sequence in argument (in error log) ini_set('display_errors', 1); json_encode("\xFF"); // *nothing* This directive determines whether errors should be printed to the screen as part of the output or if they should be hidden from the user. It should not be used to change json_encode behaviour. The same bug affects htmlentities() and htmlspecialchars() Test script: --------------- ini_set('display_errors', 0); json_encode("\xFF"); htmlspecialchars("\xFF", ENT_COMPAT, 'utf-8'); htmlentities("\xFF", ENT_COMPAT, 'utf-8'); -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=52397&edit=1 -- Try a snapshot (PHP 5.2): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=52397&r=trysnapshot52 Try a snapshot (PHP 5.3): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=52397&r=trysnapshot53 Try a snapshot (trunk): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=52397&r=trysnapshottrunk Fixed in SVN: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=52397&r=fixed Fixed in SVN and need be documented: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=52397&r=needdocs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=52397&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=52397&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=52397&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=52397&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=52397&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=52397&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=52397&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=52397&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=52397&r=globals PHP 4 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=52397&r=php4 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=52397&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=52397&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=52397&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=52397&r=float No Zend Extensions: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=52397&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=52397&r=mysqlcfg
