I can reproduce this with PCRE 7.8, you need to report this upstream to them. http://bugs.exim.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=PCRE Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2008-09-12 20:01:44] andrew at linuxjedi dot co dot uk Tried in PHP 5.2.4, also tried the (?P<name>pattern) method, same problem. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2008-09-12 19:54:10] sv4php at fmethod dot com Description: ------------ Under certain circumstanced, the $matches in a preg_match contain the wrong name of a named subpattern. Refer to the example below. Note the conditions: 1. The named patterns have the same numeric index (as they are in a switch group: (?| .. | .. | .. ) ). 2. The last name alphabetically is always reported, never mind of the pattern order and the actual pattern matched ('zoo' is last after 'poo', 'hoo' alphabetically in the example below). Reproduced on Linux and Windows. Reproduce code: --------------- $c = 'yo'; $p = '/(?|(?<poo>yo)|(?<hoo>fo)|(?<zoo>ho))/'; preg_match ($p, $c, $m); var_dump($m); Expected result: ---------------- array(3) { [0]=> string(2) "yo" ["poo"]=> <-- notice the name string(2) "yo" [1]=> string(2) "yo" } Actual result: -------------- array(3) { [0]=> string(2) "yo" ["zoo"]=> <-- notice the name string(2) "yo" [1]=> string(2) "yo" } ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=46068&edit=1
