Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-02-25 02:59:15] sniper@php.net Just to clarify: The base function that is used should check that the passed parameter is a) valid b) if valid, the file exists ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-02-25 02:56:52] sniper@php.net Same basic problem with file_exists() too.. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-02-20 00:09:28] sniper@php.net Cause of this is that in win32, php_stat() never tests whether the file exists or not. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-02-19 23:59:50] sniper@php.net Tested with latest CVS snapshot.. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-01-04 15:30:29] philip@php.net To be clearer: This happens with any bogus information, whether it be a string, NULL, or otherwise. Of course passing no arguments still results in the standard wrong parameter count error. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
