[PHP] Bug #52782: DOMDocument subclass forgotten using ->ownerDocument after closure
(I filed bug #52782 about a month ago, but have not received any reply. I am posting here to try and get some feedback on it.) We have custom XML document and element classes that extend the original DOMDocument and DOMElement classes for convenience. There is a class that uses an instance of XmlElement obtained via a callback specified at construction time. That XmlElement works fine and stays that way. However, when we get its ownerDocument outside of the closure, the result is not an XmlDocument but a DOMDocument. I cannot see a single reason why. I tried several options, and it only seems to happen with that closure. I have checked versions 5.3.1, 5.3.2, 5.3.3 and now the latest 5.3.4 snapshot compiled with './configure && make'. More details and a test case: http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=52782 Jan -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Re: [PHP] Re: Continuance of the struggle (trying to understand)
Hi Shreyas, Ok, as far as I can tell the script should show "This is an HTML line" reflecting that I am seeing the HTML part of the script followed by "This is a PHP line" to show that PHP is installed and working fine. If I view the script directly in IE by going to http://localhost/phptest.php I get the output: This is an HTML line This is a PHP line followed by a large and detailed list of the PHP install which includes things like compiler language etc. If I paste the script into a web page then all that is displayed is This is an HTML line. Nothing else whatsoever. I am fairly confused. I've tried a couple of different web page creators (Webplus 10 and Web page maker) and get the same result. Sorry if I sound extremely naive but it's bugging me now and I want to understand. Cheers "Shreyas Agasthya" wrote in message news:aanlkti=4ke1stf8tan7+ecjo-ux5cj=t9-0qctcfk...@mail.gmail.com...

Re: [PHP] Re: Continuance of the struggle (trying to understand)
Col: If i am reading this correctly, then i think you're looking at this all wrong. If you're working within some kind of page, stored outside of the http://localhost served by apache, like say the .php file is on the desktop... then yeah, you're not going to get the PHP information displayed. (tech people bare with me here...) PHP pages, are "compiled" when called... so you need apache to call php and translate the PHP code so that if there is any output, it will display that output. If you're trying to show a .php file from teh desktop, then apache isn't handeling this request, and therefor has no idea that there is php code that has to be compiled, and therefore it will just ignore it. I am sure that I am goign to get flamed for that, but i think that it kinda simplifies what apache does for php. NOW... you can run a php file from the command line, but you're not going to get the HTML results as you would had you ran if from the localhost where apache knows what to do with a .php file. So... long story short, if you want PHP to display the PHP stuff, then you will need to have it interpreted by apache (or IIS, or whatever your web server software is) to have it spit back to a web browser client. Hopefully this makes sense, it is early here, i am just getting into work :(, and it made sense while i was typing it... but my coffee intake has not had time to work it's wonderful magic with me yet, so my thoughts may be scattered.

Re: Fw: [PHP] Connecting to MySql with PHP
Hello, remember that for windows, you must also copy the library (libmysql.dll) to window's system32 directory in addition to un-commenting the extension=php_mysql.dll line in php.ini.

This means you can't even get around it with eval() or including another script to set it. I can't say I'm positive someone won't find a way around it, but short of an extension I don't see one.

[PHP] which one is faster

Thanks, Ash http://www.ashleysheridan.co.uk
Re: [PHP] which one is faster
Saeed here's a quick (and dirty) test I ran:
$tests = 100;
$start = microtime(true);
for ($i=0; $i<$tests; $i++) {
$a = md5( rand() );
$b = md5( rand() );
$c = $a.$b;
}
var_dump( "By concat op:\t". (microtime(true) - $start) );
$start = microtime(true);
for ($i=0; $i<$tests; $i++) {
$a = md5( rand() );
$b = md5( rand() );
$c = "$a$b";
}
var_dump( "By string:\t\t". (microtime(true) - $start) );
Sample results:
string(30) "By concat op: 2.1713118553162"
string(27) "By string: 2.2525599002838"
string(30) "By concat op: 2.2123351097107"
string(27) "By string: 2.2798750400543"
string(29) "By concat op: 2.1521489620209"
string(27) "By string: 2.2470209598541"
string(29) "By concat op: 2.1347990036011"
string(27) "By string: 2.1982681751251"
I would say that under virtually all cases that difference is less
then negligible.

[PHP] Variable (Class instantiation) collision
I am running into a variable collision. The project I'm developing is NOT guaranteed to be operating on PHP5. Any solution I find should (hopefully) be able to run on PHP4 (yes, I know PHP4 is deprecated). I am building a bridge between two third-party applications. Both instantiate their respective database class assigning it to $db and I cannot change that. So, I am interested in solutions to this. I found a reference to a Packager class and will be looking at it shortly. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

It doesn't have to use the braces. The braces only tell PHP exactly
where to stop parsing the current variable name. The following examples
wouldn't work without them:
$var = 'hello ';
$arr = array('msg 1'=>'hello','msg 2'=>'world');
echo "{$var}world";
echo "{$arr['msg 1']}{$arr['msg 2']}";
Without the braces, in the first example PHP would look for a variable
called $varworld, and in the second it would be looking for a simple
scaler called $arr, not the array value you wanted.

Just to add in here, they are also required when calling an object's
properties, if - ready for this? - that object is itself a property of
another object.
so while this would work,
"$circle->circumference"
this would NOT work
"$circle->circumference->inches"
The later would be injecting the $circle->circumference property, followed
by string literal "->inches". So to get it to work you would need to use
curlys.
"{$circle->circumference->inches}"

Ash:
I understand what the {} does, but just like in HTML, it is more proper
to use lower case for the attributes/elements, and use " (double quotes)
when wrapping the attributes... but is it not "REQUIRED" to write it in
that manner... just like it is not required to wrap the variables in {}
when inside the ""...
that's just me, I tend to try and do that every time...

Not really, it's no more proper than the difference between:
echo 'text' . $var;
or
echo "text$var";
And in some cases, it is required. It is down to preference if you use
them when you don't have to, but personally I'd avoid typing what is
essentially useless fluff.

Unlike HTML, PHP interpretation doesn't have various browsers to contend
with. And even if it was not proper I have a doubt that not using {} would
become deprecated anytime soon.
Also laziness is a trait of a good programmer! :)

Re: [PHP] Variable (Class instantiation) collision
Short of refactoring ApplicationB, can you set it up as a SOAP/REST service
that AppA calls?

Re: [PHP] Variable (Class instantiation) collision
If you have total control over application A which contains the bridge code,
the easiest is to change it to use a different global variable, $dbA. This
must not be doable or you wouldn't have asked.
If you have control over the bridge code, and it alone calls A and B, then
you could swap the $db variables between calls:
$db = null;
$dbA = null;
$dbB = null;
function copyPersons() {
useA();
$persons = loadPersonsFromA();
useB();
savePersonsInB($persons);
}
function connect() {
global $db, $dbA, $dbB;
connectToA();
$dbA = $db;
unset($db);
connectToB();
$dbB = $db;
unset($db);
}
function useA() {
global $db, $dbA;
$db = $dbA;
}
function useB() {
global $db, $dbB;
$db = $dbB;
}
This is the simplest implementation. You could get trickier by tracking
which system is in use and only swapping them as-needed, writing a facade
around the APIs to A and B. It's ugly, but it works.
