It should read: 6. Starting PHP 5.0.0 the T_ML_COMMENT constant is no longer defined by the ext/tokenizer extension. If error_reporting is set to `E_ALL` notices will be produced. Instead of T_ML_COMMENT for /* */ the `T_COMMENT` constant is used, thus both // and /* */ are resolved as the `T_COMMENT` constant. However, a phpdoc-style comment /** */ will resolve as the new `T_DOC_COMMENT` constant. In addition, I noticed that argv and argc don't appear to be registered in $_SERVER in the cli version any more - is this expected behavior? If so, it should be added to THIN-CHANGES as well. It does seem planned, since both $argv and $argc exist. Thanks, Greg --- ## #7157 — Daniel Convissor — 2004-01-17T19:15:10+00:00 URL: https://externals.io/message/7156#7157 · In reply to: #7156 > > In addition, I noticed that argv and argc don't appear to be registered > in $_SERVER in the cli version any more - is this expected behavior? I reported this as a bug in November: http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=26206 It doesn't seem to be intentional. > It does seem planned, since both $argv and $argc exist. WOW! That's a very interesting observation.

Perhaps the best path is to add Rasmus's words to THIN-CHANGES: $_SERVER should be populated with argc and argv if variables_order includes "S". If you have specifically configured your system to not create $_SERVER, then of course it shouldn't be there. The change was to always make argc and argv available in the CLI version regardless of the variables_order setting. As in, the CLI version will now always populate the global $argc and $argv variables.

Unfortunately, this isn't working on my system with the php5-win32-200401161930 snapshot. Perhaps I'm misunderstanding something? My variables_order has "GPCS" and register_argc_argv is "On" but $_SERVER['argv'] isn't there. Test script: Regardless of the register_argc_argv and variables_order settings in the php.ini file, the following happens: $_SERVER is filled with loads of stuff $_SERVER['argv'] is not set $argv is set register_argc_argv says 1 The right .ini file is being read, because changing variables_order shows up in the `ini_get()` output. So, what am I forgetting? --Dan -- T H E A N A L Y S I S A N D S O L U T I O N S C O M P A N Y data intensive web and database programming http://www.AnalysisAndSolutions.com/ 4015 7th Ave #4, Brooklyn NY 11232 v: 718-854-0335 f: 718-854-0409 --- ## #7357 — Daniel Convissor — 2004-01-27T16:51:26+00:00 URL: https://externals.io/message/7156#7357 · In reply to: #7162 Greetings: The following message got overlooked over the past few days.

BINGO! That's why $_SERVER['argv'] was unpopulated for me. THANK YOU! I'll update the bug reports. --Dan -- T H E A N A L Y S I S A N D S O L U T I O N S C O M P A N Y data intensive web and database programming http://www.AnalysisAndSolutions.com/ 4015 7th Ave #4, Brooklyn NY 11232 v: 718-854-0335 f: 718-854-0409
