I see several solutions but I'm not sure which is the desired one: - return 0 (size unknown) if the file is a pipe (or socket, ...) - return 0 if the file is not a regular file (or symlink, dir?) - look into a way of determining EOF reached As a quick test I changed return buf.st_size; in function zend_stream_fsize() to return 0; and cat 30k.php | php worked after that. I posted this to internals@php.net but did not get any reply so I'm not sure how to proceed. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2008-08-26 18:24:52] indeyets@php.net Description: ------------ any php-file which is larger that 16Kb will result in parse error on Mac OS X, if run as following: cat largefile.php|php -l while the following options will work: php -l largefile.php php -l < largefile.php "-l" flag is optional. it can be reproduced without it too I discussed this with Rasmus (he was able to reproduce this problem too), and he mentioned, that this bug is most likely re2c-related Expected result: ---------------- No syntax errors detected in - Actual result: -------------- PHP Parse error: syntax error, unexpected $end in … ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=45928&edit=1
