[PHP-DEV] Command line argument, that trates as QUERY_STRING, isn't proper. From: Akihiro Sagawa (sagawa <email protected>)

Hi,

I get funny $HTTP_GET_VARS passed by command line argument query_string,
on PHP 4.0.3(as far as I know :) with cgi-sapi.

This is sample for this problem.
test.php is <?php var_dump($HTTP_GET_VARS); ?>
and run from command line.

% php -f test.php 'AAA=xx&BB=yy' 'CC=zz'
array(2) {
  ["test_php_AAA"]=>
  string(2) "xx"
  ["BB"]=>
  string(8) "yy CC=zz"
}

`AAA' is connected with file name,
and inserted space between arguments.
(test.php was changed to test_php because of php variable name restriction.)

So, I modify sapi/cgi/cgi_main.c.
It provides this which I wanted.

% php -f test.php 'AAA=xx&BB=yy' 'CC=zz'
array(3) {
  ["AAA"]=>
  string(2) "xx"
  ["BB"]=>
  string(2) "yy"
  ["CC"]=>
  string(2) "zz"
}

How about this? :-)

This is patch for the problem.
