Thanks, Manuel, those are both very good ideas that we will make use of.
My original problem is simpler than that, though: I'd like to pre-allocate a
buffer for the string. Is this possible in PHP?
This is possible in both C/C++ and Delphi (with SetLength() in Delphi). The
reason for this to have let's say 4-5 re-allocations instead of ~10,000+
re-allocations.
Of course we could get into the source of PHP to add the functionality (or
alternatively, roll our own cache object), but this is a very basic feature,
and I'm sure it does have it, I'm just too unlucky not finding out how...
Happy New Year,
Peter

Dear Alek,
Thanks for the tips. The implode one seems to work pretty well, on a
synthetic test it is ~4-5 times faster than .= The substr_replace() seems to
be much worse than the original .=, I suppose because of returninng the
whole string in each call; the result should be much better with a
var-parameter version...
Thanks again, Peter

Subject: Re: [PHP-WIN] Re: Performance tuning #2
There are two ways to do that:
Method 1: Add each new part of the result to an array and when it's done,
implode() the array to get the resulting string.
Example: (get_data is your custom function)
while($data = get_data()) {
$resultA[] = $data;
}
$result = implode($resultA,'');
Method 2: Create an empty string ( $buffer = str_pad('',1024); ) and replace
parts of it with {$data = get_data(); $buffer =
substr_replace($buffer,$data,$i,$i+strlen($data)); $i += strlen($data);}.
This is not going to be pretty quickly unless PHP optimizes it, but it's
worth a try because in the best case, it can be reduced down to a single
memcpy(); If you had a function like substr_replace() that updated the
parameter, instead of returning the new string, it would surely work.

Hello,
could someone tell me if it's possible to change the locale on the system.
I'm working with :
* WinNT 4.0 Server
* Apache 1.3.19
* PHP 4.1.1
I tried the following code (which is from the manual):
setlocale ("LC_TIME", "C");
print (strftime ("%A in Finnish is "));
setlocale ("LC_TIME", "fi_FI");
print (strftime ("%A, in French "));
setlocale ("LC_TIME", "fr_FR");
print (strftime ("%A and in German "));
setlocale ("LC_TIME", "de_DE");
print (strftime ("%A.\n"));
all %A are in the same language.
do i have to configure something ?
Greetz,
RoelS

<? setlocale(LC_TIME, "fr"); echo strftime("%H heures %M, le %d %B %Y") ?>
Works ok for me.
Note : setlocale(LC_TIME, ...) and not setlocale("LC_TIME", ...)

It's correct. Did you try a page only with:
--start of file--
<?
phpinfo();
?>
--end of file--
maybe you php page have error because of the default setting of Debug mode
is off in PHP 4.1.0.

I apologize if the title of this post sounds overly aggresive, but I have
followed the instructions to a 'T' and got nowhere!! I have tried the
"auto" install version of PHP and manual instructions for installing PHP
4.1.1. Neither of them work. I added the lines to my httpd.conf file for
both types of installs (not at the same time) as discribed in the
Install.txt file, along with the instructions on the website, and can get no
"test" scripts to run or PHP for that matter. All I get is a blank screen
when running the CGI version or can not even get apache to load when I try
the Module version (Get a "Requested Operation Failed" message). can
someone please help????? My system is as follows:
Windows 2000 SP2
Apache 2.0.28 (I have also tried version 1.3.22 with same results as
mentioned above)
PHP 4.1.1
MDAC 2.7
MySQL 3.23.46a
Thanks in advance!!

I have windows 2000 server with PHP 4.1.0 and Mysql. I'm not quite sure how
PHP interelates with Mysql. Does PHP access Mysql directly? Or does it via
the Windows ODBC.
The reason why I am asking is because I have a user who wants a database
created and wants to know the credentials to access the database...so I then
used MyCC to create the database but there is no mention of username and
password.
Only if I create a FSN in the ODBC manager (by the way I loaded myodbc) does
it ask for username and password...is this correct?
Any help appreciated.
