From: albertnelsen at earthlink dot net Operating system: Linux Debian Wheezy PHP version: 5.5.15 Package: Scripting Engine problem Bug Type: Bug Bug description:require_once and include_once both fail to recognize previously included file Description: ------------ I'm using: PHP 5.5.15-1~dotdeb.1 (cli) (built: Jul 24 2014 16:44:04) on Linux unmapped 3.2.0-4-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 3.2.51-1 x86_64 GNU/Linux if you attempt to require_once or include_once the same file where the path differs only by the use of backslashes instead of forward slashes, PHP will attempt to include the file a second time. Test script: --------------- //Test1: require_once "src/ClassA.php"; require_once "src/ClassA.php"; //Test2: require_once "src\\ClassA.php"; require_once "src\\ClassA.php"; //Test3: require_once "src/ClassA.php"; require_once "src\\ClassA.php"; //Test4: require_once "src\\ClassA.php"; require_once "src/ClassA.php"; Expected result: ---------------- For this to work you need a file in the src/ClassA.php directory. Preferably one that declares and defines the ClassA class. Test1: This code should only include the file once and produce no errors. Test2: This code should only include the file once and produce no errors. Test3: This code should only include the file once and produce no errors. Test4: This code should only include the file once and produce no errors. Actual result: -------------- Test1: This code only includes the file once and produces no errors. Test2: This code only includes the file once and produces no errors. Test3: This code attempts to include the file twice resulting in a "Cannot redeclare class" error if the file contains a declaration of ClassA. Test4: This code attempts to include the file twice resulting in a "Cannot redeclare class" error if the file contains a declaration of ClassA. -- Edit bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=67689&edit=1 --
