Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2001-12-20 04:52:46] hholz...@php.net now this is strange ... the following snippet from php4/main/main.c (around line 300) does the actual logging and as it does *not* open the logfile in binary mode it should automaticly convert '\n' to whatever the local platform prefers??? log_file = VCWD_FOPEN(PG(error_log), "a"); if (log_file != NULL) { time(&error_time); strftime(error_time_str, 128 , "%d-%b-%Y %H:%M:%S" , php_localtime_r(&error_time, &tmbuf)); fprintf(log_file, "[%s] ", error_time_str); fprintf(log_file, "%s", log_message); fprintf(log_file, "\n"); fclose(log_file); return; } ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2001-12-20 04:36:06] mfisc...@php.net Reopen, leave Type: to Feature Request. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2001-12-20 04:28:40] timvandermolen at hotmail dot com "but i'm not really sure what log we are talking about here" I am talking about the PHP log file which can be defined with the directive "error_log = ..." in the PHP.INI file. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2001-12-20 04:23:54] timvandermolen at hotmail dot com There's nothing wrong with the editor. I have used Notepad to view the PHP log. I have also viewed the PHP log with Visual C++ which *converts* (note the word convert) the LF to CRLF. Appearently, CRLF is the preferred format in Windows for new lines above LF. Besides, CRLF is the new line format which practically every editor in Windows supports. And besides everything: CRLF *is* the Windows newline, LF is not. So it would not make sense to use LF as a new line in Windows environments. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2001-12-20 04:23:14] hholz...@php.net well, different systems *have* different default line ending styles, so we might want to write whatever is considered 'native' on a certain platform but i'm not really sure what log we are talking about here, as the default log mechanism (as i know it on Linux/Apache) is to pass log messages to the webserver for logging? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
