Re: [PHP-DEV] adding GB18030 support for mbstring

Thank you for your suggestion.
Let me introduce some patches which we published. They might be useful on
specific environments although they are not bugs.
If I had better to report below issues as bugs, please tell me.

* php_syslog.patch
  syslog() function cannot properly send UTF-8 strings to event log on
  Windows. This patch changes the internal API. We, however, must set
  UTF-8 on 'mbstring.internal_incoding'. 
  In addition, this changes the severity of 'LOG_ERR' from eventlog's
  warning to eventlog's error.

* php_ldap.patch
  This changes the internal API to use Windows native LDAP API instead of
  OpenLDAP one. This is because OpenLDAP has dropped Windows support.

* libmbfl_gb18030.patch
  This adds GB18030 support to 'mbstring' extension. The reason is that
  every software in China needs to support the character encoding.

And we also published some patches for 'spidermonkey' extension.

The list is available on:
http://developer.cybozu.co.jp/oss/php/index.html

KITAZAKI Shigeru

[PHP-DEV] Re: [PHP-I18N] adding GB18030 support for mbstring

Kitazaki-san,

First thank you for your effort. But, I am under the impression that
the conversion table looks too huge to include in a distribution
(>30MB).  Is there any way to get this more compressed?

BTW, I created an extension that is near-compatible with mbstring and
based on ICU that of course supports GB18030. See
http://github.com/moriyoshi/mbstring-ng for detail.

Regards,
Moriyoshi

It has to be optional. Maybe a mbstring.syslog* option to set a given
encoding for the syslog functions.

That's something I have done too but I don't think we can do it in a
minor version as it introduces some BC breaks. For example with SSL,
as far as I know it is not possible to use custom cerficates in custom
places (via openssl).

[PHP-DEV] Too many levels of symbolic links error

Hello,

We use php in cgi mode. PHP version is 5.2.3.

I am using popen to execute grep on a file

popen($cmd, "r");

where $cmd = "/usr/bin/grep xyz /var/tmp/log/session"

and log is a symbolic  link pointing to /var/log

ls -l /var/tmp/
lrwxr-xr-x  1 root    wheel    8 Jan 31 23:17 log -> /var/log

In the shell I am able to run this command fine.
When I execute from php using popen I get this error
[chrome://firebug/content/blank.gif]grep: /var/tmp/log/session: Too many levels of symbolic links

If I don't use symbolic link it works fine. But I need to use symbolic link
due to some limitations.

Any idea what could be wrong?

Thanks

It seems this doesn't relies on any mbstring settings, but just
changed syslog() to take strings encoded in UTF-8 instead of the
system's default encoding.  It'd look good to me if it had a new flag
causing syslog() to switch to the new behaviour.

Moriyoshi

Re: [PHP-DEV] imap4 search criteria

Thanks a lot for your reply. I also found a second bug report related to this: http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=21168

Now, how about adding an imap_newsearchpgm function to the PHP imap extension which would do a call to
mail_nsewsearchpgm inside c-client and return a structure allowing to contruct IMAP4 search programs
(SEARCHPGM inside c-client) ?

Anyone interested in this ?

Thank you for your advise. It sounds good to be optional.
Let me consider about it again.

I see. If you remember your work, please give me the points such as
summary of URL or patches and the test suites.

Ah, sorry to misguide you. You are right.
My concern is why we cannot build it with VC++ with official documents.
I want to use the same compiler and to keep distributing PHP binary as
small as possible. And, OpenLDAP had supported VC++ in several years ago
as much as I know.
But, this is not a issue of PHP but OpenLDAP, I guess.
