Bug #17784 Updated: fopen() 4th parameter not document

ID: 17784 Updated by: cynic@php.net Reported By: mfischer@php.net Status: Open Bug Type: Documentation problem PHP Version: 4.0CVS-2002-06-16 New Comment: whoa, kudos for the footwork, philip! :) Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-07-16 18:07:57] philip@php.net This has been briefly documented, I lack the knowledge to take it further. Here's some related information: Re: [PHP-DEV] streams and options http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=php-dev&m=101922976301407 Also, in NEWS: PHP now has a new stream system that allows it to do some clever stuff with fopen() and fsockopen(). As a result: . URL wrappers natively supports https:// URLs . fsockopen() adds support for ssl:// and tls:// connections via TCP/IP . copy($srcfilename, $destfilename) can now be used with URL wrappers . zlib wrappers/streams can be used even on systems without fopencookie() . Added 'compress.bzip2://' stream and wrapper support. . Added user-space streams - it is now possible to define a class in PHP code and register it as a URL wrapper. . Most extensions now support streams when passing files, which means that those extensions will support URL wrappers.

I did post an example to php-dev a while back. I will properly document this stuff when my workload decreases to something just below fever pitch. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-07-01 17:34:37] jan@php.net This bug has been fixed in CVS. You can grab a snapshot of the CVS version at http://snaps.php.net/. In case this was a documentation problem, the fix will show up soon at http://www.php.net/manual/. In case this was a PHP.net website problem, the change will show up on the PHP.net site and on the mirror sites. Thank you for the report, and for helping us make PHP better. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-06-16 10:02:35] mfischer@php.net The 'zcontext' parameter is not documented. It allows the reusing of an already stream (?), docs and examples should be really done. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=17784&edit=1
