pack

(PHP 4, PHP 5)

pack — Pack data into binary string

Описание

string pack ( string $format [, mixed $args [, mixed $... ]] )

Pack given arguments into binary string according to format .

The idea for this function was taken from Perl and all formatting codes work the same as in Perl However, there are some formatting codes that are missing such as Perl's "u" format code.

Note that the distinction between signed and unsigned values only affects the function unpack(), where as function pack() gives the same result for signed and unsigned format codes.

Also note that PHP internally stores integer values as signed values of a machine-dependent size. If you give it an unsigned integer value too large to be stored that way it is converted to a float which often yields an undesired result.

Список параметров

format

The format string consists of format codes followed by an optional repeater argument. The repeater argument can be either an integer value or * for repeating to the end of the input data. For a, A, h, H the repeat count specifies how many characters of one data argument are taken, for @ it is the absolute position where to put the next data, for everything else the repeat count specifies how many data arguments are consumed and packed into the resulting binary string.

Currently implemented formats are:

pack() format characters
Code Description
a NUL-padded string
A SPACE-padded string
h Hex string, low nibble first
H Hex string, high nibble first
csigned char
C unsigned char
s signed short (always 16 bit, machine byte order)
S unsigned short (always 16 bit, machine byte order)
n unsigned short (always 16 bit, big endian byte order)
v unsigned short (always 16 bit, little endian byte order)
i signed integer (machine dependent size and byte order)
I unsigned integer (machine dependent size and byte order)
l signed long (always 32 bit, machine byte order)
L unsigned long (always 32 bit, machine byte order)
N unsigned long (always 32 bit, big endian byte order)
V unsigned long (always 32 bit, little endian byte order)
f float (machine dependent size and representation)
d double (machine dependent size and representation)
x NUL byte
X Back up one byte
@ NUL-fill to absolute position

Returns a binary string containing data.

Примеры

Пример #1 pack() example

<?php
$binarydata 
pack("nvc*"0x12340x56786566);
?>

The resulting binary string will be 6 bytes long and contain the byte sequence 0x12, 0x34, 0x78, 0x56, 0x41, 0x42.

Note that the the upper command in perl looks like this:

$binarydata = pack ("n v c*", 0x1234, 0x5678, 65, 66);
In PHP it seems that no whitespaces are allowed in the first parameter. So if you want to convert your pack command from perl -> PHP, don't forget to remove the whitespaces!

You will get the same effect with

<?php
function _readInt($fp)
{
   return 
unpack('V'fread($fp4));
}
?>

or unpack('N', ...) for big-endianness.

Be aware of format code H always padding the 0 for byte-alignment to the right (for odd count of nibbles).

So pack("H", "7") results in 0x70 (ASCII character 'p') and not in 0x07 (BELL character)
as well as pack("H*", "347") results in 0x34 ('4') and 0x70 ('p') and not 0x03 and 0x47.

Using pack to write Arabic char(s) to a file.

<?php
$text 
"&#13574;&#13830;&#13830;";

$text mb_convert_encoding($text"UCS-2BE""HTML-ENTITIES");

$len mb_strlen($text);

$bom mb_convert_encoding("&#65534;""unicode""HTML-ENTITIES");

$fp fopen('text.txt''w');

fwrite($fppack('a2'$bom)); 
fwrite($fppack("a{$len}"$text));
fwrite($fppack('a2'$bom)); 
fwrite($fppack('a2'"\n"));

fclose($fp);
?>

If you need to unpack a signed short from big-endian or little-endian specifically, instead of machine-byte-order, you need only unpack it as the unsigned form, and then if the result is >= 2^15, subtract 2^16 from it.

And example would be:

<?php
$foo 
unpack("n"$signedbigendianshort);
$foo $foo[1];
if(
$foo >= pow(215)) $foo -= pow(216);
?>

If you'd like to understand pack/unpack. There is a tutorial here in perl, that works equally well in understanding it for php:

Even though in a 64-bit architecure intval(6123456789) = 6123456789, and sprintf('%b', 5000000000) = 100101010000001011111001000000000
pack will not treat anything passed to it as 64-bit.  If you want to pack a 64-bit integer:

<?php
$big 
5000000000;

$left 0xffffffff00000000;
$right 0x00000000ffffffff;

$l = ($big $left) >>32;
$r $big $right;

$good pack('NN'$l$r);

$urlsafe str_replace(array('+','/'), array('-','_'), base64_encode($good));

//done!

//rebuild:
$unurl str_replace(array('-','_'), array('+','/'), $urlsafe);
$binary base64_decode($unurl);

$set unpack('N2'$tmp);
print_r($set);

$original $set[1] << 32 $set[2];
echo 
$original"\\r\\n";
?>

results in:
Array
(
    [1] => 1
    [2] => 705032704
)
5000000000

but ONLY on a 64-bit enabled machine and PHP distro.
