Request #27182 [Patch] uniqid("prefix", 0) now works under recent cygwin
Submitted: 2004-02-08 00:40 UTC Modified: 2013-10-15 11:54 UTC
From: sagawa at sohgoh dot net Assigned:
Status: No Feedback Package: *General Issues
PHP Version: 4.3.5RC2 OS: CYGWIN_NT-5.1 1.5.7
Private report: No CVE-ID: None

Description:
------------
According to cygwin-patches(*1) and ChangeLog(*2), Cygwin's usleep now advances system clock(gettimeofday).
*1 .. http://sources.redhat.com/ml/cygwin-patches/2003-q3/msg00178.html
*2 .. http://sources.redhat.com/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/src/winsup/cygwin/signal.cc?cvsroot=src#rev1.48

Therefore I can use uniqid safely when more entropy flag is zero, I made a patch. (but "more entropy flag" is still on by default for backward compatibility)
Unfortunary cygwin doesn't change version for this change, I apply most recent change of CYGWIN_VERSION_API_MINOR.

"String functions [tests/strings/001.phpt]" now pass!

Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
echo uniqid("prefix"),"\n";
echo uniqid("prefix", 1),"\n";
echo uniqid("prefix", 0),"\n";
echo uniqid("prefix", 0),"\n";
echo uniqid("prefix", 0),"\n";
?>

From looking at the sources[1], the result is not surprising.
