preg_replace() to preg_replace_callback

[Dhillon]

I need help converting this function.

This is the function-

function &fetch_full_ameinfo($findonly = false, $refresh = false)
{

    global $db, $vbulletin, $vbphrase, $stylevar;
    static $ameinfo = array();
    static $inied, $lastfind;

    if ($refresh)
    {

        $inied = false;

    }

    if ($lastfind && !$findonly)
    {

        $inied = false;
        $ameinfo = array();

    }

    if (!$inied)
    {

        if (!$refresh AND $vbulletin->options['automediaembed_cache'])
        {

            $path = $vbulletin->options['automediaembed_cache_path'];

            if (file_exists($path . "findonly.php"));
            {

                if ($findonly)
                {

                    include($path . "findonly.php");

                }
                else
                {

                    include($path . "ameinfo.php");

                }

                $inied = true;
                $lastfind = $findonly;

                return $ameinfo;
            }

        }

        if ($vbulletin->options['automediaembed_resolve'])
        {

            $embed = ",IF(extraction=1 AND embedregexp!= '', embedregexp, '') as embedregexp, IF(extraction=1 AND validation!= '', validation, '') as validation";
            $embedwhere = " AND ((extraction = 0 AND embedregexp = '') OR (extraction = 1)) ";

        }
        else
        {

            $embedwhere = " AND embedregexp = ''";

        }


        $sql = "SELECT findcode" . (!$findonly ? ", replacecode,title,container,ameid" : ",extraction$embed") . " FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX . "automediaembed WHERE status=1 $embedwhere
                        ORDER BY displayorder, title ASC";

        $results = $db->query_read_slave($sql);

        while ($result = $db->fetch_array($results))
        {

            if ($result['findcode'])
            {

                if (!$findonly)
                {

                    $ameinfo['find'][] = "~($result[findcode])~ie";
                    $ameinfo['replace'][] = 'ame_match_bbcode($param1, $param2, \'' . $result['ameid'] . '\', \'' . ame_slasher($result['title']) . '\', ' . $result['container'] . ', \'' . ame_slasher($result['replacecode']) . '\', \'\\1\', \'\\2\', \'\\3\', \'\\4\', \'\\5\', \'\\6\')';


                }
                else
                {

                    $ameinfo['find'][] = "~(\[url\]$result[findcode]\[/url\])~ie";
                    $ameinfo['find'][] = "~(\[url=\"?$result[findcode]\"?\](.*?)\[/url\])~ie";
                    $ameinfo['replace'][] = 'ame_match("\1", "", ' . intval($result['extraction']) .', "' . ($result['embedregexp'] ? "~" . ame_slasher($result['embedregexp']) . "~sim" : "") . '", "' . ($result['validation'] ? "~" . ame_slasher($result['validation']) . "~sim" : "") . '",$ameinfo)';
                    $ameinfo['replace'][] = 'ame_match("\1", "\2", ' . intval($result['extraction']) .', "' . ($result['embedregexp'] ? "~" . ame_slasher($result['embedregexp']) . "~sim" : "") . '", "' . ($result['validation'] ? "~" . ame_slasher($result['validation']) . "~sim" : "") . '", $ameinfo)';

                }

            }

        }

        $inied = true;
    }

    $lastfind = $findonly;

    return $ameinfo;
}

 

Called here-

function ame_process_bbcode(&$parser, &$param1, $param2 = '')
{
    if (class_exists('vB_BbCodeParser_Wysiwyg') AND is_a($parser, 'vB_BbCodeParser_Wysiwyg'))
    {
     return $text; 
    }
    else
    {
        global $vbulletin;
        ($hook = vBulletinHook::fetch_hook('automediaembed_parse_bbcode_start')) ? eval($hook) : false;
        $ameinfo = fetch_full_ameinfo();

        $text = preg_replace($ameinfo['find'], $ameinfo['replace'], ($param2 ? $param2 : $param1), 1);

        ($hook = vBulletinHook::fetch_hook('automediaembed_parse_bbcode_end')) ? eval($hook) : false;
        return $text;   
    }
}

What have you tried so far and how has it not worked?

[Dhillon]

I tried the solution provided here but didn't work:  https://stackoverflow.com/questions/44855629/the-e-modifier-is-deprecated-use-preg-replace-callback-instead-of-preg-replace

This is what the script is: https://www.vbulletin.org/forum/showthread.php?t=202476

 

As you can tell I am not a coder, So any pointers will be greatly appreciated.

Converting it to what? What do you want it to do? What is it not doing? 

[Dhillon]

^The code is throwing deprecated message on php 5.6 and not working at all on php 7.

Have you tried Googling the error message?

According to that StackOverflow thread, you have been told what to do. So what's the problem you're having with it?
