ID: 44866 User updated by: david at acz dot org Reported By: david at acz dot org Status: Bogus Bug Type: cURL related Operating System: SLES 10 x86_64 PHP Version: 5.2.5 New Comment: That does not help for long-running (e.g. CLI) scripts. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2008-05-05 23:04:03] iliaa@php.net Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at http://www.php.net/manual/ and the instructions on how to report a bug at http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php The file will be closed at the end of the request. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2008-04-30 01:05:03] david at acz dot org Description: ------------ File handles are normally closed automatically when the reference count hits zero. For example, if you fopen() something in a function and only assign it to a local variable, the file is closed when the function returns. CURLOPT_INFILE breaks this behavior. Presumably, the curl resource destructor does not decrement the reference count for the file handle. Reproduce code: --------------- <? $name = tempnam("/tmp", "phpbug"); $n = count(scandir("/proc/self/fd")); test_simple($name); var_dump(count(scandir("/proc/self/fd")) == $n); test_curl($name, true); var_dump(count(scandir("/proc/self/fd")) == $n); test_curl($name, false); var_dump(count(scandir("/proc/self/fd")) == $n); function test_simple($name) { $fp = fopen($name, "r"); } function test_curl($name, $close) { $fp = fopen($name, "r"); $c = curl_init(); curl_setopt($c, CURLOPT_PUT, true); curl_setopt($c, CURLOPT_INFILE, $fp); curl_setopt($c, CURLOPT_INFILESIZE, 0); curl_setopt($c, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true); curl_exec($c); curl_close($c); if ($close) fclose($fp); } ?> Expected result: ---------------- bool(true) bool(true) bool(true) Actual result: -------------- bool(true) bool(true) bool(false) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=44866&edit=1
