Re: [PHP] Please help with glob
Hi there
Since glob is actually a part of the core - Are you absolutely sure
that you're running PHP 4.3
2011/4/5 Al Mangkok almang...@gmail.com:
Hi everyone,
I am very new to PHP and trying to learn the glob() function. I copied
the example on php.net :
?php
foreach (glob(*.txt) as $filename) {
echo $filename size . filesize($filename) . \n;
}
?
When I ran the script, I got this error message:
Fatal error: Call to undefined function glob() in
/usr/local/apache2/htdocs/hrms/globtest.php on line 2
I am running PHP 5.2.17 on CentOS 4.8 . How do I compile PHP to get
the glob function in ?
Please help.

Hi Louis,
Yes, I have read that glob is only available for PHP 4.3 and I am
using version 5.2.1.7
# /usr/local/bin/php -v

# /usr/local/bin/php globtest.php
Fatal error: Call to undefined function glob() in
/usr/local/apache2/htdocs/hrms/globtest.php on line 2
I have read somewhere that it could be connected to glibc, not I have
no idea how to fix that. Anyone ?

Re: [PHP] Please help with glob
Yesterday I yum installed these:
glibc-common.i386 2.3.4-2.54
glibc.i686 2.3.4-2.54
glibc-headers.i386 2.3.4-2.54
glibc-devel.i386 2.3.4-2.54
And about ten minutes ago I recompiled PHP with identical configure
options as before. And this time the glob function is inside PHP.
Phew.
Hopefully someone else will benefit from this post.

I can workaround this problem my parsing the correctly formatted date

May I suggest including the timezone in your date format (O or e)? It may show
the two date strings to be equivalent.

Timestamps (the integer value) do not hold the timezone data.
Internally, the value represents a number of milliseconds from a point
in time.
So saying timestamp for Asia/Singapore isn't right. It is just Timestamp.
The following script (http://pastebin.com/0MQAaYUq) may show you in a
more concrete way ...
?php
$a_Times = array(
'now',
'2011-03-27 00:59:59',

// Create Timezone objects
$a_Timezones = array(
'Singapore' = new DateTimeZone('Asia/Singapore'),
'NewYork ' = new DateTimeZone('America/New_York'),
'London ' = new DateTimeZone('Europe/London'),
'UTC ' = new DateTimeZone('UTC'),
);
foreach($a_Times as $s_Time) {
echo 'Time : ', $s_Time, PHP_EOL;
// Create datetime objects
$a_DateTimes = array();
foreach($a_Timezones as $s_Timezone = $tz_Timezone) {
$a_DateTimes[$s_Timezone] = new DateTime($s_Time ,
$tz_Timezone);
}
// Print the date
foreach($a_DateTimes as $s_Timezone = $dt_DateTime) {
echo
'Current time in ', $s_Timezone, ' : ',
$dt_DateTime-format(DateTime::RSS),
' Offset : ', str_pad($dt_DateTime-getOffset(), 6, '

' Timestamp : ', ($i_Timestamp =
$dt_DateTime-getTimestamp()),
' Local : ', date(DateTime::RSS, $i_Timestamp),
PHP_EOL;
}
echo PHP_EOL;
}

Hi,
Found the problem:
Unix timestamps are a moment in time and so timezones have no influences
on them. They count the number of seconds since 1970-01-01 00:00 *UTC*
See: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unix_time
So the timestamp will always be the same no matter which timezone.
I will use by workaround to get the expected timestamp for use in
comparisons.
Regards
Ian

[PHP] Re: Ranges for case statement and a WTF moment.
On 5 April 2011 16:28, Richard Quadling rquadl...@gmail.com wrote:
Hi.
I just wanted to quickly see if PHP supported ranges in its
switch/case statement (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ellipsis)
?php
$s = intval(date('s'));
switch($s)
{
case 0...9 : echo 'Between 0 and 9'; break;
case 10...19 : echo 'Between 10 and 19'; break;
case 20...29 : echo 'Between 20 and 29'; break;
case 30...39 : echo 'Between 30 and 39'; break;
case 40...49 : echo 'Between 40 and 49'; break;
case 50...59 : echo 'Between 50 and 59'; break;
default : echo 'Unknown : ', $s;
}
?
Completely unexpectedly, the above code runs but produces the wrong output.
Interestingly, altering the number of dots and adding spaces all
result in parse errors ...
case 0..9 : // 2 dots, no spaces
case 0 .. 9 : // 2 dots, with spaces
case 0 ... 9 : // 3 dots, with spaces
It was confusing that the initial code ran without a parse error, but
considering that it did, it would suggest that the case values are
actually meaningful in some way.
php -r var_dump(10...19);
Interesting output ...
string(6) 100.19
And that took me a little while to work out.
It's all to do with PHP's type juggling.
10...19
What I'm not sure is why the middle empty string is output as 0.
10 . . .19 becomes 10 . 0 . .19 which becomes 100.19
Oddly, more . don't work.
php -r var_dump(1019);
all result in parse errors.
I don't know if this is a bug per se, but it is an oddity that I
though I'd share.
And what is even more surprising is that the initial code works in the
PHP V4.0.0. So maybe an 11 years old bug.
You really would have thought I'd have more to do with my time!
Regards,
Richard.
Just tested PHP V3.0.11 and I get the same response.
Seems that this is just the way it is.
An oddity for since 1999-06-26 at least.
Richard.
