php backwards compatibility porting tips (PHP)

2013-02-10T00:40:26-08:00

PHP recipe 578452 by imam ferianto (backwards, compatibility, old, php4, php5).

Hello again, on december 2012, I was porting my old php code (php4) to new php 5.4.3. There are to many errors within code, especially for session, eregi, global variables and others. This some pieces step for compatibility porting:

add global variable definiton on some function that need outside variable <code> function getuser(){ global $loginid,$password; } </code>
replace eregi(/find/,str) with preg_match(//,str)
add function exists for function that not exists in php5.4.3. for example: <code> if(!function_exists("session_is_registered")){ function session_is_registered($var){ return isset($_SESSION[$var]); } } if(!function_exists("session_register")){ function session_register($var){ $_SESSION[$var]=$_GLOBALS[$var]; } } </code>

Ok there is my tips, how about you?

PHP 'Struct' port (PHP)

2010-03-28T01:22:31-07:00

PHP recipe 577160 by Jeff Griffiths (iterator, iterators, oop). Revision 2.

In Ruby, the Struct class is a convenient way to create a hash-like object on the fly and use it for your nefarious purposes. PHP 5+ can be convinced to do this type of things as well, it just doesn't have it out of the box. Here is a simple class that implements iterator and allows you to populate the internal data structure similar to how Ruby's Struct works. Syntactic sugar? Probably.

Note: I haven't bothered to implement the Ruby Struct API per se, Instead I just got something similar by implementing the Iterator interface and keeping things very PHP-like.

       "[a-zA-Z0-9]@+[a-z].{1,}net$",trim($Emails)))

New Code =

       foreach($Email as $Emails)
   { // checks Emails - .net , .com , .au  & etc

   [0-9a-zA-Z-]+\.)+[a-zA-Z]{2,6}$/i", $Emails))

i changed from eregi function to preg_match function because eregi was taking out of PHP version 5.3.0 and 5.3.5.

Generate a salt (PHP)

2012-07-10T19:52:17-07:00

PHP recipe 576894 by Xavier L. (crypt, generation, generator, hash, pass, password, salt, secure, security, string). Revision 6.

This function will generate a salt for use with passwords ranging using characters in range a to z, A to Z, 0 to 9 and !@#$%&?. The characters are sorted in a random value and can appear more than one time in the string. This way, this function is more powerful than the *shuffle() function. This means that the salt could also be longer than the character list.
