Description:
------------
---
From manual page: http://www.php.net/function.blenc-encrypt
---

Example #1 from manpage encrypts script fine, but when you run the encrypted php script then you get an error:

    Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '<' 
    in C:\phpdesktop\phpdesktop-chrome\www\my_source_encoded.php on line 1

It seems that blenc_encrypt() expects source code to not contain any php tags. After removing php opening and closing tags in "my_source_to_protect.php" the encrypted script will run fine.

Tested with BLENC 1.1.4b.
Using Mongoose 3.9 webserver and PHP CGI.

Test script:
---------------
<?php
// This is Example #1 from blenc_encrypt manual page.
$source_code = file_get_contents("my_source_to_protect.php");
$redistributable_key = blenc_encrypt($source_code, "my_source_encoded.php");
$key_file = ini_get('blenc.key_file');
file_put_contents($key_file, $redistributable_key, FILE_APPEND);
?>

Expected result:
----------------
Printing a secret string: XuXuXaaa

Actual result:
--------------
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '<' 
in C:\phpdesktop\phpdesktop-chrome\www\my_source_encoded.php on line 1

I've been solving this specific problem by myself and have patched version of this at: https://github.com/illuusio/pecl-php-blenc. If you like to test patched version of blec_encode.php version. It's not 100% working but should make thinks work.

I'm suspending the reports for BLENC as it doesn't seem to have stalled (looking at both repositories I could find on git.php.net and github) and it does not seem compatible with any currently supported version of PHP either. Please unsuspend in case someone takes over this extension
