From: esri at godseyfamily dot com Operating system: Liinux PHP version: 5.1.2 PHP Bug Type: Feature/Change Request Bug description: hex to float request

A function that parses the binary string introduces a huge amount of overhead when I do 1024 of these values in a row. I would think that any programming language would have this basic capability. I'm getting raw data, and a data type that it needs to be converted to. I checked and didn't see this requested, though I'm sure it has been. -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=36849&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 4.4): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=36849&r=trysnapshot44 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 5.1): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=36849&r=trysnapshot51 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 6.0): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=36849&r=trysnapshot60 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=36849&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=36849&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=36849&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=36849&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=36849&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=36849&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=36849&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=36849&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=36849&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=36849&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=36849&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=36849&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=36849&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=36849&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=36849&r=float No Zend Extensions: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=36849&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=36849&r=mysqlcfg
