[PHP-DOC] #22331 [Ana]: mbstring configuration variables are marked PHP_INI_ALL, but this is false. From: vigna at dsi dot unimi dot it (phpdoc <email protected>)

For func_overload you are right--I misread.

For what matters your example: you're right too. The problem is that I
was checking using what's written in the docs, i.e., that ini_set()
would return false on failure:

php -q
<?php
print mb_http_output()."\n";
print ini_set("mbstring.http_output", "EUC-JP") === false;
print "\n".mb_http_output()."\n";
?>
pass
1
EUC-JP

BTW, this is really with PHP 4.2.2.

So either the first or the second statement are returning the wrong
value.

I can not get the result with you.
I can change mbstring.http_output (and some others) in a script.
This is a sample script,
<?php
 print mb_http_output()."\n"; // default output encoding.
 mb_http_output("EUC-JP"); // set new encoding.
 // or ini_set("mbstring.http_output","EUC-JP");
 print mb_http_output()."\n"; // output: "EUC-JP".
?>

And, mbstring.func_overload is defined as PHP_INI_SYSTEM
in the php manual, and is not defined as PHP_INI_ALL.

Assigning this task to Rui Hirokawa for fear it'd be forgotten. (Rui,
feel free to reassign to me if you think it better)

Sorry: apparently they cannot even be modified in .htaccess--that was a
mistake.

The documentation states that the

mbstring.func_overload
mbstring.internal_encoding
mbstring.http_input
mbstring.http_output
mbstring.substitute_character

are PHP_INI_ALL. This is completely false--it is impossible to set them
in a script (except maybe for internal_encoding, but the effect is not
completely clear if you already have strings floating around).

Apparently, all of them can be set using .htaccess except for
func_overload, which must be set in php.ini.
