ID: 19970 Comment by: michael.mauch@gmx.de Reported By: cynic@php.net Status: Open Bug Type: Filesystem function related Operating System: FreeBSD 4.7-STABLE PHP Version: 4.2.2 New Comment: Yes, cynic, you're right, it's a bug. $fd = fopen(__FILE__, 'r'); while (!feof($fd)) { $s = fgets($fd); if($s === false) echo "There was an error! And feof() is ",var_dump(feof($fd)); // echo $s; } fclose($fd); Prints: There was an error! And feof() is bool(true) Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-10-18 04:55:18] cynic@php.net michael: i meant bool(true) of course, sorry for the confusion. wez: still no banana roman@freepuppy ~/tmp 1027:0 > php -v PHP 4.3.0-dev (cli), Copyright (c) 1997-2002 The PHP Group Zend Engine v1.3.0, Copyright (c) 1998-2002 Zend Technologies roman@freepuppy ~/tmp 1028:1 > cat feof1.php <?php $fd = fopen(__FILE__, 'r'); while (!feof($fd)) fgets($fd, 4096) || var_dump(feof($fd)); fclose($fd); roman@freepuppy ~/tmp 1029:0 > php feof1.php bool(true) roman@freepuppy ~/tmp 1030:0 > fgets() gets to read past EOF, but it shouldn't. looks like feof() is broken. roman@freepuppy ~/tmp 1031:0 > fc -lf |grep "cvs -q up" 1016 10/18/2002 11:35 cvs -q up roman@freepuppy ~/tmp 1032:0 > date Fri Oct 18 11:48:31 CEST 2002 roman@freepuppy ~/tmp 1033:0 > cat ~/install/php4/config.nice.cli #! /bin/sh # # Created by configure './configure' \ '--enable-cli' \ '--enable-inline-optimization' \ '--enable-ftp' \ '--enable-shmop' \ '--enable-sysvsem' \ '--enable-sysvshm' \ '--enable-sockets' \ '--enable-tokenizer' \ '--disable-session' \ '--disable-shared' \ '--with-openssl' \ '--with-zlib' \ '--with-bz2' \ '--with-curl' \ '--with-gettext' \ '--with-iconv' \ '--with-mcrypt=/usr/local' \ '--with-mhash=/usr/local' \ '--with-ncurses' \ '--with-readline' \ '--with-pear' \ '--with-config-file-path=/usr/local/etc' \ '--with-mysql=/usr/local' \ "$@" I ./configure --disable-all --enable-cli with the same result. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-10-18 03:49:52] wez@php.net cynic - can you try HEAD or a snapshot from the last day or so? I fixed an eof related issue recently. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-10-18 03:45:31] michael.mauch@gmx.de I get bool(true) with 4.2.3 and 4.3.0-dev (from yesterday), both mod_php, Linux 2.4.19. Maybe it's a documentation problem: the manual only says about the return value of fgets(): If an error occurs, returns FALSE. Nothing is said about the return value on EOF (only "People used to the 'C' semantics of fgets() should note the difference in how EOF is returned."), so I guess fgets() is free to return whatever it likes on EOF. Was this different in previous versions of PHP? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-10-18 01:57:06] cynic@php.net am I the only one who thinks that this should not output anything? <?php $fd = fopen(__FILE__, 'r'); while (!feof($fd)) fgets($fd, 4096) || var_dump(feof($fd)); fclose($fd); I get bool(false) from 4.4.0-dev (cli) and 4.2.2 mod_php. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=19970&edit=1
