Description: ------------ example5 even doesn't work with the latest CVS Version (LiveUser.php,v 1.120 2005/11/08) because - uniqid is called without mandatory parameter - no instance is returned at all changing the code to the folliwing worked for me (not intensively tested!): function &singleton(&$conf, $signature = null) { static $instances; if (!isset($instances)) { $instances = array(); } if (is_null($signature)) { if (empty($instances)) { $signature = uniqid(rand()); } else { $signature = key($instances); } } if (!array_key_exists($signature, $instances)) { $instances[$signature] =& LiveUser::factory($conf); } return $instances[$signature]; }

isnt this a duplicate of the already fixed: http://pear.php.net/bugs/bug.php?id=5669

no, it is not a dupe because i am using the latest cvs version of LiveUser.php and thus using the code that was meant to fix the original bug. As you can see at [1] uniqid() is being called without any argument. [1] http://cvs.php.net/co.php/pear/LiveUser/LiveUser.php

This bug has been fixed in CVS. If this was a documentation problem, the fix will appear on pear.php.net by the end of next Sunday (CET). If this was a problem with the pear.php.net website, the change should be live shortly. Otherwise, the fix will appear in the package's next release. Thank you for the report and for helping us make PEAR better.
