Hello,
I'm porting our extension from php5.6 to php7.1 x64 Windows, Visual Studio
2015.
I'd like to write an extension function that has one input / output
parameter type of long. But the parameter value changed in extension is not
changed in php. What I'm doing wrong?
The php code is:
$a = 3;
$r = hello_square($a);
var_export($a); echo "\n"; //value of $a still remains 3, should be 9.
The c code is:
PHP_FUNCTION(hello_square)
{
long a = 0;
zval *b;
if (zend_parse_parameters(ZEND_NUM_ARGS() TSRMLS_CC, "z", &b) == FAILURE)
{
return;
}
a = Z_LVAL_P(b);
ZVAL_LONG(b, a*a);
RETURN_BOOL(1);
}
----
I also implemented hello_square this way
PHP_FUNCTION(hello_square)
{
zend_long b;
if (zend_parse_parameters(ZEND_NUM_ARGS() TSRMLS_CC, "l", &b) == FAILURE)
{
return;
}
b = b * b;
RETURN_BOOL(1);
}
And the value of $a remains unchanged.
What you should do is to make the parameter sent to hello_square() a
reference, this is done by the following (keep in mind this uses the
new and fast parameter parsing API, but it is still do-able with the
old zend_parse_parameters()):

Take a look at the README.PARAMETER_PARSING_API in the root of
php-src, this includes all possible values that
zend_parse_parameters() can accept
I've fixed line 10 from your sample to
ZVAL_LONG(b, Z_LVAL_P(b) * Z_LVAL_P(b));
or put a constant
ZVAL_LONG(b, 20);
But in php $a variable remains unchanged.
Full c source is:
PHP_FUNCTION(hello_square)
{
zval *b;
ZEND_PARSE_PARAMETERS_START(1, 1)
Z_PARAM_ZVAL_DEREF(b)
ZEND_PARSE_PARAMETERS_END();
zval_dtor(b);
ZVAL_LONG(b, Z_LVAL_P(b) * Z_LVAL_P(b));
RETURN_TRUE;
}
