Bug description: preg_match , last optional sub-patterns ignored when empy
Description:
------------
in preg_match , when optional sub-patterns (using ? or {0,n} ) are the
last sub-patterns and empty (e.g. not matched) they are ignored in $matches
array
this behavior is inconsistent with preg_match_all , and with the case when
the empty optional sub-pattern isn't the last one
Reproduce code:
---------------
$str="1";
preg_match("#\d(\d)?#",$str,$mt);
var_dump($mt);
Expected result:
----------------
array(2) {
[0]=>
string(1) "1"
[1]=>
string(0) ""
}
(the string(0) "" does appear on all cases with preg_match_all , and with
preg_match , when there is any additional sub-patterns after it)
Actual result:
--------------
array(1) {
[0]=>
string(1) "1"
}
(the value of sub-pattern vanished)
