#42038 [NEW]: realpath doesn't resolve symbolic link
From: kraghuba at in dot ibm dot com
Operating system: MACOSX
PHP version: 5CVS-2007-07-18 (snap)
PHP Bug Type: Filesystem function related
Bug description: realpath doesn't resolve symbolic link
Description:
------------
realpath() doesn't resolve symlink and returns the link file name when
input path is a link path.
As per the documentation at
http://in.php.net/manual/en/function.realpath.php,
The resulting path will
have no symbolic link, '/./' or '/../' components.
Applicable to php5.2.4 only on MacOS X.
Please check testcase symlink_link_linkinfo_is_link_variation6.phpt.
Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
$file_path = dirname(__FILE__);
$filename = "$file_path/file.tmp";
$linkname = "$file_path/link.tmp";
$fp = fopen($filename, "w");
fclose($fp);
symlink($filename, $linkname);
var_dump( realpath($linkname) );
unlink($linkname);
unlink($filename);
?>
Expected result:
----------------
string(%d) "%s/file.tmp"
Actual result:
--------------
string(%d) "%s/link.tmp"
