ID: 63486 Patch added by: der...@php.net Reported by: der...@php.net Summary: mysqli_free_result leave the resource variable in a messy state Status: Open Type: Bug Package: MySQLi related PHP Version: 5.4.8 Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: The following patch has been added/updated: Patch Name: mysqli-clear-result-cleanup Revision: 1352638381 URL: https://bugs.php.net/patch-display.php?bug=63486&patch=mysqli-clear-result-cleanup&revision=1352638381 Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2012-11-11 12:52:02] der...@php.net Description: ------------ An Xdebug user filed the following report: http://bugs.xdebug.org/view.php?id=900 I've just investigated this, and found out that this is something I can't fix in Xdebug. mysqli_free_result() destroys the internal object, but leaves the resource (in your case, $rs) in a silly state. All Xdebug does internally is basically a var_dump( $rs ), and after it is freed with mysqli_free_result(), that throws exactly the same error (without Xdebug). This can however, easily be fixed in the MySQLi extension with the attached patch. The patch applies to PHP 5.4, but this also a problem in master and PHP 5.3. It is also possible, that other mysqli_free_* functions can benefit from a similar construct. Test script: --------------- <?php $con = mysqli_init(); mysqli_real_connect($con, '127.0.0.1', 'root', 'xxxxx'); $rs = mysqli_query($con, 'show schemas'); $row = mysqli_fetch_object($rs); mysqli_free_result($rs); echo "hi mom"; var_dump( $rs ); ?> Expected result: ---------------- The expected result is perhaps something like "NULL" (which my patch makes it do). Actual result: -------------- hi mom Warning: var_dump(): Couldn't fetch mysqli_result in /home/derick/dev/php/derickr-xdebug/tests/bug00900.php on line 10 Call Stack: 0.0002 662616 1. {main}() /home/derick/dev/php/derickr-xdebug/tests/bug00900.php:0 0.0032 672792 2. var_dump(class mysqli_result { public $current_field = NULL; public $field_count = NULL; public $lengths = NULL; public $num_rows = NULL; public $type = NULL }) /home/derick/dev/php/derickr-xdebug/tests/bug00900.php:10 Warning: var_dump(): Couldn't fetch mysqli_result in /home/derick/dev/php/derickr-xdebug/tests/bug00900.php on line 10 Call Stack: 0.0002 662616 1. {main}() /home/derick/dev/php/derickr-xdebug/tests/bug00900.php:0 0.0032 672792 2. var_dump(class mysqli_result { public $current_field = NULL; public $field_count = NULL; public $lengths = NULL; public $num_rows = NULL; public $type = NULL }) /home/derick/dev/php/derickr-xdebug/tests/bug00900.php:10 Warning: var_dump(): Property access is not allowed yet in /home/derick/dev/php/derickr-xdebug/tests/bug00900.php on line 10 Call Stack: 0.0002 662616 1. {main}() /home/derick/dev/php/derickr-xdebug/tests/bug00900.php:0 0.0032 672792 2. var_dump(class mysqli_result { public $current_field = NULL; public $field_count = NULL; public $lengths = NULL; public $num_rows = NULL; public $type = NULL }) /home/derick/dev/php/derickr-xdebug/tests/bug00900.php:10 Warning: var_dump(): Couldn't fetch mysqli_result in /home/derick/dev/php/derickr-xdebug/tests/bug00900.php on line 10 Call Stack: 0.0002 662616 1. {main}() /home/derick/dev/php/derickr-xdebug/tests/bug00900.php:0 0.0032 672792 2. var_dump(class mysqli_result { public $current_field = NULL; public $field_count = NULL; public $lengths = NULL; public $num_rows = NULL; public $type = NULL }) /home/derick/dev/php/derickr-xdebug/tests/bug00900.php:10 Warning: var_dump(): Property access is not allowed yet in /home/derick/dev/php/derickr-xdebug/tests/bug00900.php on line 10 Call Stack: 0.0002 662616 1. {main}() /home/derick/dev/php/derickr-xdebug/tests/bug00900.php:0 0.0032 672792 2. var_dump(class mysqli_result { public $current_field = NULL; public $field_count = NULL; public $lengths = NULL; public $num_rows = NULL; public $type = NULL }) /home/derick/dev/php/derickr-xdebug/tests/bug00900.php:10 class mysqli_result#2 (5) { public $current_field => NULL public $field_count => NULL public $lengths => NULL public $num_rows => NULL public $type => NULL } ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=63486&edit=1
