Bug Type: Feature/Change Request
Operating System: FreeBSD, SunOS
PHP Version: 4.3.9
New Comment:
No.
SunOS (Solaris)'s putenv C function does not return -1, even received
argument is valiable name only (like "VAR").

Just as a comment:
It seems that only Linux supports unsetting env vars with putenv("VAR")
and under others OSes putenv() fails with -1 in this case.

Description:
------------
PHP doesn't support unsetenv, therefore I can't unset environment
variable.
On Linux box, putenv C function supports putenv("FOO") syntax that
vanish FOO environment variable. But other OS (such as SunOS, FreeBSD)
is not. Therefore please add putenv("FOO") feature to others in PHP5.
Note: please distinguish empty variable (= getenv returns "") from
undefined one (= getenv returns false).
Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
echo "OS: ",PHP_OS,"\n";
echo "foo is "; var_dump(getenv("FOO"));
echo "---\n";
echo "putenv(\"FOO=bar\"): "; var_dump(putenv("FOO=bar"));
echo "foo is "; var_dump(getenv("FOO"));
echo "---\n";
echo "putenv(\"FOO=baz\"): "; var_dump(putenv("FOO=baz"));
echo "foo is "; var_dump(getenv("FOO"));
echo "---\n";
echo "putenv(\"FOO\"): "; var_dump(putenv("FOO"));
echo "foo is "; var_dump(getenv("FOO"));
?>
Expected result:
----------------
% php envtest.php
OS: Linux
foo is bool(false)
---
putenv("FOO=bar"): bool(true)
foo is string(3) "bar"
---
putenv("FOO=baz"): bool(true)
foo is string(3) "baz"
---
putenv("FOO"): bool(true)
foo is bool(false)
% env FOO=foo php envtest.php
OS: Linux
foo is string(3) "foo"
---
putenv("FOO=bar"): bool(true)
foo is string(3) "bar"
---
putenv("FOO=baz"): bool(true)
foo is string(3) "baz"
---
putenv("FOO"): bool(true)
foo is bool(false)
Actual result:
--------------
% php envtest.php
OS: FreeBSD
foo is bool(false)
---
putenv("FOO=bar"): bool(true)
foo is string(3) "bar"
---
putenv("FOO=baz"): bool(true)
foo is string(3) "baz"
---
putenv("FOO"): bool(false)
foo is bool(false)
% env FOO=foo php envtest.php
OS: FreeBSD
foo is string(3) "foo"
---
putenv("FOO=bar"): bool(true)
foo is string(3) "bar"
---
putenv("FOO=baz"): bool(true)
foo is string(3) "baz"
---
putenv("FOO"): bool(false)
foo is string(3) "baz"
% php envtest.php
OS: SunOS
foo is bool(false)
---
putenv("FOO=bar"): bool(true)
foo is string(3) "bar"
---
putenv("FOO=baz"): bool(true)
foo is string(3) "baz"
---
putenv("FOO"): bool(true)
foo is bool(false)
% env FOO=foo php envtest.php
OS: SunOS
foo is string(3) "foo"
---
putenv("FOO=bar"): bool(true)
foo is string(3) "bar"
---
putenv("FOO=baz"): bool(true)
foo is string(3) "baz"
---
putenv("FOO"): bool(true)
foo is string(3) "foo"
