Inserting binary data fails

[aistis-]

Hello, I've been trying to put some bins into Aerospike which are compressed data, hence being binary string. Seems that inserting such data fails with an error:

Exception: Invalid value given for argument value.

I made a test to cover this case: #58

My current workaround to insert compressed data is to actually encode it with base64 which adds ~25% size overhead. Seems that non-asc symbols are causing the error.

Is there any chance someone from the maintainers could look into it? Thank you.

Hi @aistis- Thanks you for bringing this to our attention. We will be investigating and get back to you.

I used PHP 8.3 (8.3-cli-bullseye on https://hub.docker.com/_/php/tags) to test it.

Also, the error persists when using Blob expression: new Bin("binaryBin", Expression::blobBin($binary));

The error is basically the same:

Exception: Invalid value given for argument name.

v1.3.0 is now out which addresses this issue & adds an updated binary put/get test. Let us know how u go :)

Thanks, I confirm that inserting and reading binary works!

However, seems there is a memory leak when inserting a binary using Value::binary(...). Garbage collector is not able to clean these(?) objects.

I'll open a new ticket.
