#42929 [Opn]: Cannot access the old stream wrapper from a wrapper class

ID: 42929 User updated by: woodsmailbox at yahoo dot com Reported By: woodsmailbox at yahoo dot com Status: Open Bug Type: Streams related Operating System: WinXP SP2 PHP Version: 5.2.4 New Comment: I also think getcwd() and chdir() should be open for stream-wrapping for the relative paths to work with a wrapper for the default "file" scheme.

Another feature that could get me out of this chicken and egg problem would be to be able to alias a built-in wrapper protocol in its current configuration (i.e. with it's current handler class). I would happily alias "file:" to "filesystem:" and then register my own wrapper class to the "file:" protocol and use the "filesystem:" protocol internally. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2007-10-11 14:24:48] woodsmailbox at yahoo dot com Description: ------------ I would like to "wrap" a stream wrapper, and this would include calling the original wrapper's methods from my wrapper class. For instance, I would like to implement versioning over the file:// protocol but I cannot access the filesystem while my file:// wrapper is registered. It would be nice to be able to use the classes of built-in wrappers. Also, I can't find the php function to change the default wrapper so I can have relative paths handled by my wrapper. A lot of app. code not under my control use relative paths. I could register my own file:// wrapper but then again... My current workaround is to call stream_wrapper_restore() inside my wrapper's functions, do my thing with the filesystem, then call stream_wrapper_register() again, but I think this sucks. I hope php is doing no more than changing some pointers internally when I call these functions, otherwise, the performance of my wrapper is gone. Thanx.
