Summary: bindtextdomain with null directory doesn't return
the previously set
Status: Open
Type: Bug
Package: Gettext related
Operating System: Debian 5.0.6
PHP Version: 5.3.3
Block user comment: N
New Comment:
The previous expected PHP results shown are not correct for
'bindtextdomain'.
The expected results should be:
getcwd() : /home/jeanseb
bindtextdomain("messages", "./locale") : ./locale
bindtextdomain("messages",NULL) : ./locale
When I test using python 'bindtextdomain' I get the correct result:
# cat test.py
#!/usr/bin/env python
from gettext import *
print bindtextdomain("messages", "./locale");
print bindtextdomain("messages",None);
# python test.py
./locale
./locale
Relative base directories are allowed.

Description:
------------
man bindtextdomain :
If dirname is NULL, the function returns the previously set base
directory for domain domainname.
In PHP we are returning the CWD.
I have attached a patch with 2 tests.
ext/gettext/tests/gettext_bindtextdomain-nulldir-alreadyset.phpt
=> PASS with my patch
ext/gettext/tests/gettext_bindtextdomain-nulldir.phpt
=> Fail, my patch introduce a BC. I'm not sure we want this but I don't
see any workarround.
Test script:
---------------
<?php
echo 'getcwd() : ' . getcwd() . PHP_EOL;
echo 'bindtextdomain("messages", "./locale") : ' .
bindtextdomain("messages", "./locale") . PHP_EOL;
echo 'bindtextdomain("messages",NULL) : ' .
bindtextdomain("messages",NULL) . PHP_EOL;
Expected result:
----------------
getcwd() : /home/jeanseb
bindtextdomain("messages", "./locale") : /home/jeanseb/locale
bindtextdomain("messages",NULL) : /home/jeanseb/locale
Actual result:
--------------
getcwd() : /home/jeanseb
bindtextdomain("messages", "./locale") : /home/jeanseb/locale
bindtextdomain("messages",NULL) : /home/jeanseb
