Bug description:Modify headers_list() to return an array of set headers in CLI
SAPI
Description:
------------
Calling headers_list() from the CLI version of PHP always returns an empty
array, ignoring the results of previous calls to header(), despite the fact
that they are already tracked internally.
As some background, I'm attempting to write a pure PHP bootstrap
development HTTP server to help programmers easily create new development
environments and for lightweight standalone webapps that don't need a fully
featured web-server to deploy.
One of the things I'm trying to accomplish with this is to enable out of
the box usage on various *nix distros and Mac OSX. The PHP-CGI SAPI is
perfect for my project, but it isn't always installed by default (certainly
not on OSX), so I'm attempting to make it work with the CLI version.
I've managed to work around most of the limitations I've run up against,
but this headers_list() always returning an empty array is a complete
show-stopper. Without being able to retrieve the list, apps that set any
kind of custom headers (including cookies), can never work correctly.
I've attached a one-line patch to enable headers_list() to function in the
CLI SAPI. Another (probably better) option would be to create an ini file
setting to determine which behavior to exhibit. I'd be happy to do the dev
work for that and submit the revised patch.
Test script:
---------------
#!/usr/bin/php
<?php
header('Location: asdf');
$list = headers_list();
var_dump($list);
Expected result:
----------------
array(2) {
[0]=>
string(23) "X-Powered-By: PHP/5.3.5"
[1]=>
string(14) "Location: asdf"
}
Actual result:
--------------
array(0) {
}
