Hi,

PHP uniqid() can include a '.' (dot) in some case which. Uniqid is use to defune 'unifunc' which is then used as a function name if the '.' gets in there it become a PHP error.

sysplugins/smarty_internal_template.php :
BUG : $this->properties['unifunc'] = 'content_' . uniqid();
BETTER : $this->properties['unifunc'] = 'content_' . str_replace('.', '_',uniqid());


Reproduce : i get this on cygwin PHP 5.3.8

I changed my file, hope to see this uniqid usage fixed in the next version.

Best,
Bob.

I just found this:

https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=34908

So cygwin does use a different default value for $more_entropy parameter of uniqid() and this is not documented.

Anyway we will update our code with the next release.

Same bug rises again when executing PHP on HHVM (Hip Hop 2.4).

On hhvm uniqid('', true) returns "," instead "."

So you should replace
'content_' . str_replace('.', '_',uniqid());
to
'content_' . str_replace(array('.',','), '_',uniqid());

best regards,
Kowach

Thanks for your input.

The fix is now in the SVN trunk and will later be included in 3.1.17
