but it should? shouldn't it how can I destroy a class instance invocing
__detruct() of the class ?!?!?
--- End Message ---

unset($obj) always calls the __destruct() function of the class.
in your case clearly you are missing something else. Probably
unset($anobject) is not being called at all ?

That's not entirely correct. PHP uses reference counting, so if
unsetting a variable did not cause the object to be destructed then
it's highly likely that there is another variable somewhere that is
holding a reference to that object.

Never calls the dtor. The dtor will be called only when the reference
count reaches 0.
class c { function __destruct() { echo 'dying !' ; } }
$v1 = new c ;
$v2 = $v1 ;
unset($v1) ; // don't call the dtor
unset($v2) ; // call the dtor

that is correct and that is the problem, and even that is not all !!!
try this
<?php
abstract class a {
public function __construct(){
echo "constructing....<br>";
}
public function __detruct(){
echo "destructing....<br>";
}
}
class b extends a{
}
$c = new b();
unset( $c );
?>
the constructor is inherited, the destructor not !!
PHP 5.2.9-1 and
PHP 5.3.0 behave the same

That would seem sensible to me though really. A constructor only bears
true for the base class, so any classes which inherit it must
incorporate all the constructor parts. A destructor doesn't know about
further classes which will need to inherit it, so it shouldn't be
inherited and the new class should sort things out. At least, that's how
I see it.

Then I assume you would have to copy the object into another variable rather
than reference the one you are trying to destroy?

this is also not the full truth try this and it works
what are the circumstances that is causing this problem then, yes I do have
distributed references over my script and there are clearly references still
set, however after running the snipped script I can not see what I do
special in my script causing the problem. I even tried with public and
private static in other objects. it works. however the manual indicates the
refernce counter has to be 0.
<?php
abstract class a {
public function __construct(){
echo "constructing....<br>";
}
public function __destruct(){

In PHP 5 all objects are passed by reference unless explicitly cloned.
This means that assigning an object variable to another variable does
nothing more than assign a reference and increment the referece count.
What exactly in the manual leads you to believe that after the unset
the refcount should be 0?

see http://cn.php.net/manual/en/language.oop5.abstract.php
PHP 5 introduces abstract classes and methods. It is not allowed to
create an instance of a class that has been defined as abstract. Any
class that contains at least one abstract method must also be
abstract. Methods defined as abstract simply declare the method's
signature they cannot define the implementation.
You make misconception understand for abstract class,:(, correct code is:
abstract class a {
abstract public function __construct(){
}
abstract public function __destruct(){
}
}
class b extends a{
public function __construct(){
echo "constructing....<br>";
}
public function __destruct(){
echo "destructing....<br>";
}
}
$c = new b();
unset($c);
if you want to make it work correctly that you want,plase change code to follow
class c {
public function __construct(){
echo "constructing....<br/>";
}
public function __destruct(){
echo "destructing....<br/>";
}
}
class d extends c{
}
$e = new d();
unset($e);

Hi Keith,
Glad it works! I'm not sure how inverting the case statement helps you
minimize the code in each case. As both I and Adam showed, you can do
the same thing more efficiently (and IMHO much more readably) like
this:
switch ($sum)
{
case 8:
break;
case 7:
case 6:
break;
case 2:
case 1:
break;
case 0:
break;
default:
break;
}
Additionally, I would argue there's nothing different below other
than it's even more easier to read and understand:
switch ($sum)
{
case 0:
break;
case 1:
case 2:
break;
case 6:
case 7:
break;
case 8:
break;
default:
break;
}

Lot's of ways to skin this cat/dog.
What's wrong with exploding the string using

Angelo, excuse me if I'm bringing up something very basic, but I'm new
to this. Just trying to help.
I imagine redirects couldn't be the cause of the problem, right?
http://www.oscarm.org/news/detail/1877-avoiding_frustration_with_php_session
s
http://www.webmasterworld.com/forum88/8486.htm
Hi thanks for the links it appears that its all in order also I'm not losing
SESSIONS on the redirect but somewhere else.
I have checked the garbage collection, disk space and other settings in the
PHP.ini file. ALL FINE.
So now I am really stuck and confused as to what could sometimes cause the
loss of these variables and other times it just works fine.
Is there possibly a way that I can call some function that will ensure that
the sessions are saved (I checked the manual - nothing much).
Any other ideas? Anything that you think might be causing issues?
Thanks
Angelo

Hi all
I'm upgrading PHP version from PHP 4 to 5.3.0 and Apache to 2.2.13, but I'm
facing a weird problem on the following statement:
$StringaParametri=exec('java -cp ..\\java rsa6230 ' . $Token);
It works on PHP 4 and PHP 5 CGI, but it hang Apache using MOD_PHP5. The
problem occurs when 2 or more requests are served at the same time.
PHP 4 doesn't have the problem but it works as CGI. On PHP 5 we rule out CGI
because it is too slow.
The problem seems to be related to exec/system/ functions family. Other
scripts using system(), running .NET program, hang in the same way.
Configuration:
Windows Server 2003
Apache 2.2.13
PHP 5.3.0 ( PHP 5.2.10 has the same problem too)
Any idea?
Thank you

Hi, I am still a newbie in php. Is there a shorter way to include a php

Can I omit the last whitespace before the closing ?> ?

There is a shorttag syntax for a basic PHP echo, and you nearly had it
in your code example:
<?=$user['fullname']?>
But this will only work on a setup that has shorttags enabled, and a lot
of shared hosts don't by default. Have you looked at heredoc?
print <<<EOC
<form>
<input type="text" name="fullname" size="40"
value="{$user['fullname']}"/>
</form>
EOC;

Yes, you can include a PHP value in a script. Like this:
...size="40" value="<?php echo $user['fullname']; ?>" />
Your curly braces are redundant, and you must quote the "fullname" index
if you're not quoting the whole $user['fullname'] expression. Yes, you
can remove the final space after $user['fullname']; and before the tag
closure (?>). But there's no reason to.

Hi,
The code below actually takes input from a web form and sends the fields
captured in an email. It used to work quite well since past few years. It
has stopped now. I used Google's mail servers (google.com/a/website.com)
<?
$fName = $_REQUEST['fName'] ;
$emailid = $_REQUEST['emailid'] ;
$number = $_REQUEST['number'] ;
$message = $_REQUEST['message'] ;
mail( "ch...@gmail.com", $number, $message, "From: $emailid" );
header( "Location: http://www.thankyou.com/thankYouContact.php"; );
?>
This is the simplest one, how could it simply stop? Any help would be
appreciated, I have already lost 148 queries that came through this form.
Thanks in advance,
Chris

Have you tried it without the header redirect in there? There might be
some sort of error message that you are never seeing because of that.
Also, do you know for definite that the mail() function has stopped
working? It could be that you are just not receiving the emails anymore
due to some over zealous spam filter. Try sending the email to a variety
of email accounts and see what happens.
Thanks,
Ash

Hi Chris,
More information would be very helpful. In exactly what way is it
failing? Blank page? Apparently normal operation, except the email
isn't being sent? Error messages? Log messages? etc. . .
One possibility is that the server config has changed to no longer
allow short open tags. This is easy to check for by simply replacing
'<?' with <?php' on the first line.
There are of course other possibilities but without knowing how it's
failing, any guesses would just be shots in the dark.

Torben

As a test, change $_REQUEST above to $_POST (assuming POST method on the
form), and try it.
Also check the return value of the mail() function to see if it thinks
it has succeeded or failed. If it fails, check the mail logs on the
server to find what the mail server thinks is wrong.

You are absolutely right, more information is needed. Many ISP's are
changing port number assignments on their SMTP outgoing email to prevent
abuse. A simple change like that could cause the email to not go out, and
it has nothing to do with PHP.

The $_REQUEST will not have anything to do with it. $_REQUEST contains
any values sent by POST.

PHP pages won't open at all on my server. HTML pages open fine, but when
going to the PHP pages that are on my server, the browser tries to download
the page like a file instead of presenting it by the browser. What can I do
to make the PHP processor to be handled properly? Do I need to recompile it
again, and if so, what switches should I use?
I am running Apache version 2.2.11. I'm on Fedora 2.6.11-1.1369_FC4 on that
particular server. I'm running PHP 5.2.9 which I downloaded directly from
the php web site, then untarred, ran make, and make install commands as
described in the php INSTALL file that was included with the distribution..
==================
Example 2-4. Installation Instructions (Apache 2 Shared Module Version)
1. gzip -d httpd-2_0_NN.tar.gz
2. tar xvf httpd-2_0_NN.tar
3. gunzip php-NN.tar.gz
4. tar -xvf php-NN.tar
5. cd httpd-2_0_NN
6. ./configure --enable-so
7. make
8. make install
==================
You will probably try to talk me into using yum, I would like to but it is
broken and fixing it leads to even more troblemshooting. I want to fix this
first, then I will tackle the yum issue next.

Hello,
If PHP is installed properly, look at step 14 (loading the module in
apache) and step 15 (Tell Apache to parse certain extensions as PHP)
in the PHP installation documentation.
