Curious PHP cli output in context of bash completion ?

Hello,

I'm pretty "sure" (in realty I do not understand a lot about the =
problem... :( ) this is a distribution or a version problem but maybe =
some PHP/bash expert here could have some idea and tell me what I could =
try to solve the problem described here :

http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=3D8734334

Shortly : PHP cli seems to output something like newlines that bash can =
not intercept.

My initial goal is to complete a PHP script, using the PHP script =
itselfs as function for bash completion. Mechanism that works perfectly =
on some other platforms (with different PHP AND bash version ...) than =
Ubuntu 8.04 and 9.10 (PHP 5.2.4 and PHP 5.2.10 respectively). The =
interest : only one thing to code : the php script. Moreover : the PHP =
scripts knows "things" (DB connection, .. etc) that the bash script =
would have some difficulty to get.

Thank you a lot for any help.

Re: Curious PHP cli output in context of bash completion ?

Have you tried letting the php script output "\r\n" instead of just
"\n" as newline ?

Also, MySQL has good command line tools and there are plenty of command
line interfaces to it you can use from Bash

Re: Curious PHP cli output in context of bash completion ?

The problem has nothing to do with "myscript.php" output.
The problem is in bash completion process wich involves only =
"echoscrip.[php|sh]". These scripts only have (to my comprehension) to =
output a single string, without newline and it is what they do.
The fact is, and I do not understand why because the output is exactly =
the same :=20
- using echoscript.sh to provide bash COMPREPLY variable value, bash =
completion works,
- using echoscript.php to do the same, bash completion does not work.

I tried to took for a runtime option (php.ini) but didn't found anything =
relevant.

PS : just because I had to do it, I tried to add newline and cariage =
return to all the scripts. The result is the same, unfortunately.

Yes, I know how to use MySQL binaries ;).
But it's not only about MySQL business : in my context, the PHP script =
has access to many business processes that only exists in PHP code. In =
this context (to my mind), it is quiet normal and simpler to get bash =
completion variables value from the PHP itself.

We could probably continue to discuss this design issue but the problem =
is that, in the context of bash completion process, echoscript.php and =
echoscript.sh that simply echo "a b c d" (exactly the same output), give =
different results and I can not understand why ... I searched for =
runtime options (php.ini) but didn't found anything relevant. I also =
searched about the "shebang" but with no result.

I just attached a modified version of completion.sh, the script to =
source in the current bash process to complete "myscript.php" (see =
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=3D8734334 for a complete =
description).
If you uncomment the lines that call echoscript.php and echoscript.sh, =
you can compare php.out and sh.out files and see they are identical =
(using "diff -b php.out sh.out" for instance). When echoscript.php is =
not called, the bash completion process works. When it is called the =
completion goes wrong, even if you do not use the output in the =
completion process (the modified version of completion.sh uses a =
"static" bash string "a b c d").

Can anyone understand what could happened ?

Thank you,

OK : I just recompiled, under Ubuntu 8.04, the same php version that the
distribution provides, used the same php.ini and it works... I didn't
applied the same patchs or even setted the same compilation options but for
me it's "clear" that it is a distribution problem.

I still do not know what exactly differs and makes the problem appear. Maybe
some PHP expert could orient me to the right direction (I'm not a Guru of
compilation, especiallly for PHP ...) ?

Thanks
