Edit report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=65697&edit=1 ID: 65697 Updated by: pajoye@php.net Reported by: giunta dot gaetano at gmail dot com Summary: is_link not working with windows junctions -Status: Open +Status: Not a bug Type: Bug Package: *Directory/Filesystem functions Operating System: win7 64bit PHP Version: 5.4.19 Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: Junctions are not symlinks, the result is correct. Also the junctions pointing to a directory may work. I remember some windows version specific changes here, where it ended as symlink or junction (recent always do it as symlonk afair) Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2013-09-18 12:51:32] giunta dot gaetano at gmail dot com Description: ------------ is_link seems to return false for junction points which show up as <JUNCTION> when using the DIR command. It seems to work for junctions which show up as <SYMLINKD> when using the DIR command. tested on php 5.3.27 and 5.4.14 (32 bit of course) Test script: --------------- <?php $paths = array( "linksource", "linktarget", "linktarget2" ); foreach ( $paths as $path ) { echo "----\n $path\n"; var_dump( is_link( $path ) ); var_dump( is_dir( $path ) ); var_dump( array_diff( stat($path), lstat($path) ) ); } Expected result: ---------------- results of DIR command: 07/09/2013 15:59 <DIR> linksource 07/09/2013 19:11 <JUNCTION> linktarget [D:\htdocs\linksource] 18/09/2013 14:30 <SYMLINKD> linktarget2 [linksource] Actual result: -------------- D:\htdocs>php linktest.php ---- linksource bool(false) bool(true) array(0) { } ---- linktarget bool(false) bool(true) array(8) { [2]=> int(16895) [8]=> int(1378562389) [9]=> int(1378562389) [10]=> int(1378562389) ["mode"]=> int(16895) ["atime"]=> int(1378562389) ["mtime"]=> int(1378562389) ["ctime"]=> int(1378562389) } ---- linktarget2 bool(true) bool(true) array(8) { [2]=> int(16895) [8]=> int(1378562389) [9]=> int(1378562389) [10]=> int(1378562389) ["mode"]=> int(16895) ["atime"]=> int(1378562389) ["mtime"]=> int(1378562389) ["ctime"]=> int(1378562389) } ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=65697&edit=1
