[PATCH] Getopt with longopts and windows support - part 2

Hello Jani,

David has a point here. So first of all we should move getopt
implementation out of CLI/CGI and into main. Could you do that
first Jani?

Hi internals,

so based on a discussion of php.pecl we thought about using the php_getopt
for the PHP_FUNCTION(getopt) instead of the system provided getopt. Here
is the patch for that. Hopefully someone is reviewing and commiting the
patch as i don't have karma.

It addes main/getopt.c main/php_getopt.h to the build system and uses the
php_getopt function in the ext/standard/basic_functions.c. Furthermore it
removes all HAVE_GETOPT and HARTMUT_0 switches. it also enable longopts
for both win and linux in the form

$opt = getopt("a", array("param:", "param2"));

Where ":" in the longopts marks that the parameter takes an argument.

The main/getopt.c and main/php_getopt.h is in fact taken from
sapi/cli/getopt.c and sapi/cli/php_getopt.h but is slightly modified.

http://experimentalworks.net/~dsp/getopt.patch.tar.gz

It also runs on windows.

To apply the patch:

1. remove
   sapi/cli/getopt.c sapi/cli/php_getopt.h
   sapi/cgi/getopt.c sapi/cgi/php_getopt.h

2. add main/getopt.c and main/php_getopt.h frm the archive
3. apply the patch.

Best regards,
Marcus

Hi internals,

for the PHP_FUNCTION(getopt) instead of the system provided getopt. Here

The idea is good imo, but there are a few things we have to do:

• We need more tests, as far as I saw using grep we just have a single
  testcase for getopt() which is certainly not enough when replacing the
  implementation.

• The current implementation is not thread-safe, I don't know about the
  glibc implementation but if we use our own implementation for
  PHP's getopt function that should be threadsafe.

• If you move php_getopt to main you have to mark it as PHPAPI so the
  SAPIs can use it.

Maybe there's more, didn't do a deeper review of the patch, yet, since
I'd like to wait a) until Jani moved the files and b) we have more
tests :-)
