Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at http://www.php.net/manual/ and the instructions on how to report a bug at http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php >From the documentation: "serialize - Generates a storable representation of a value" - storable, not "displayable" ot something like that. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2008-06-12 09:47:41] bukaj at bukaj dot net Description: ------------ This issue has been marked as closed in bug #29865 but THE PROBLEM IS STILL PRESENT IN 5.2.6. Serialize inserts NUL (ASCII 0) characters into output when serializing objects. Serialize CAN'T produce output with unprintable chars - that's the idea of serialize! This issue has been marked as resolved in bug #29865 but IT IS NOT. Reproduce code: --------------- $ php -r 'class Foo { protected $bar = 1; } $v = new Foo; echo serialize($v);' | hexdump Expected result: ---------------- No unprintable chars in result of serialize!!! Actual result: -------------- 0000000 4f 3a 33 3a 22 46 6f 6f 22 3a 31 3a 7b 73 3a 36 0000010 3a 22 00 2a 00 62 61 72 22 3b 69 3a 31 3b 7d 000001f mark the two 00's at 0x12 and 0x14 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=45244&edit=1
