Bug #61032 [Ana]: False value for blank last line with SKIP_EMPTY andDROP_NEW_LINE

Edit report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=61032&edit=1 ID: 61032 Updated by: cmb@php.net Reported by: jcampbell at remindermedia dot com Summary: False value for blank last line with SKIP_EMPTY andDROP_NEW_LINE Status: Analyzed Type: Bug Package: SPL related Operating System: Fedora 16 PHP Version: 5.3.10 Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: According to the changelog[1] and the sources the "broken fix" is available as of PHP 5.3.9. (<https://3v4l.org/Ad364> reports otherwise, though.) That is already documented in the Changelog section of the SplFileObject man page[2]. It appears to me that this report should be marked as WONTFIX.

I should have realized that after reading bug 55807. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2012-02-09 22:25:59] rasmus@php.net Until we fix this and to be compatible with the broken versions, you can simply add SplFileObject::READ_AHEAD. This won't break anything for past nor future versions since that is what SplFileObject::SKIP_EMPTY implied before. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2012-02-09 20:22:05] rasmus@php.net This was caused by fixing bug 55807 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2012-02-09 19:41:32] jcampbell at remindermedia dot com Description: ------------ Suddenly, using SplFileObject::SKIP_EMPTY and SplFileObject::DROP_NEW_LINE no longer ignores a final blank line in a file. Instead, when iterating over the file object, the last value is boolean false. This appears to have changed between 5.3.8 and 5.3.9 and persists in 5.3.10. Test script: --------------- <?php $filename = "/tmp/test-file.txt"; file_put_contents($filename, "non-blank line1" . PHP_EOL); file_put_contents($filename, "non-blank line2" . PHP_EOL, FILE_APPEND); $TheFile = new SplFileObject($filename, "r"); $TheFile->setFlags( SplFileObject::SKIP_EMPTY | SplFileObject::DROP_NEW_LINE ); foreach ($TheFile as $line) { print "Currently on key " . $TheFile->key() . ": " . PHP_EOL; var_dump($line); } Expected result: ---------------- Currently on key 0: string(15) "non-blank line1" Currently on key 1: string(15) "non-blank line2" Actual result: -------------- Currently on key 0: string(15) "non-blank line1" Currently on key 1: string(15) "non-blank line2" Currently on key 2: bool(false) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=61032&edit=1
