Bug description:while loop does not meet conditions
Description:
------------
I am seeing a bug in PHP 5.3 where the WHILE LOOP is not meeting all of the
conditions. The same code was working great in PHP 5.2 but broke after a
PHP upgrade. I reviewed the PHP 5.3 change-log and nothing is mentioned for
changes in WHILE LOOP conditions.
Test script:
---------------
<?php
function cutTextPer($string, $setlength) {
$rlength = $setlength;
if($rlength<strlen($string)){
while (($string{$rlength} != '.') && ($rlength > 0)) {
$rlength--;
}
if ($rlength== 0) {
return substr($string, 0, $setlength);
} else {
return substr($string, 0, $rlength).'.';
}
}else {
return $string;
}
}
$mstr = 'ProNeticas has released a visual rapid database design tool. This
allows you to generate online programs in rapid time, without any
programming.';
print cutTextPer( (String)$mstr, 52);
?>
[OUTPUT IN PHP 5.2]
ProNeticas has released a visual rapid database design tool.
[OUTPUT IN PHP 5.3]
ProNeticas has released a visual rapid database de
Expected result:
----------------
ProNeticas has released a visual rapid database design tool.
Actual result:
--------------
ProNeticas has released a visual rapid database de
