Segmentation fault: 11 error

[jilieryuyi]

I got an error Segmentation fault: 11

run with code :

$base = event_base_new();
$event = event_new();

event_set($event, 0, EV_TIMEOUT, function() {
echo "function called";
});
event_base_set($event, $base);

event_add($event, 5000000);
event_base_loop($base);

Hi @jilieryuyi,

I'll take a look at this issue tonight

[jilieryuyi]

Has it been fixed? This bug still happen after recompile

Not yet, the night may be long :)

Just a question, if you want to use it as a timer, why don't you use event_timer_new instead of event_new :

<?php
  function tick() {
    echo 'tick';
  }

  // create ressources
  $base = event_base_new();
  $event = event_timer_new();

  // configure
  event_timer_set($event, 'tick');
  event_base_set($event, $base);
  event_add($event, 1000);

  // run
  event_base_loop($base, EVLOOP_ONCE);

The segmentation fault comes from the fact that the 500000 is considered as a long and tries to convert it to a ressource (old legacy code).

IMO it would just raise a warning, return false, and I should remove the long argument type in order to be more strict. Need to digg in order to be sure what usecase could be possible for a ressource -> long

Please, tell me if it's OK with the timer functions

Hi @jilieryuyi,

It's fixed, could help with snippets like these. You can make PHPT files here : https://github.com/expressif/pecl-event-libevent/tree/master/tests and send me a pull request, it would greatly improve the library stability
