#12536 [Com]: fread does not look to be working right

ID: 12536 Comment by: lolita-young1124 at hotmail dot com Reported By: knightemu at yahoo dot com Status: Bogus Bug Type: Performance problem Operating System: win 98 box PHP Version: 4.0.4pl1 New Comment: <a href=http://rhairyfighting-show.da.ru>young lolita</a> Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2001-08-06 01:05:16] sniper@php.net You should consider using something like the first example is on this page: http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.fread.php Anyway, works very nicely for me with PHP 4.0.6 in WindowsME. --Jani ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2001-08-05 22:25:21] knightemu at yahoo dot com $filefill = fread($fp, 100000000); //will take a long time on a very small file. if you add another 0, it will cause a "Internal Server Error" - this is not surprising. computers dont deal well with BIG numbers. i could not get php to re-create the error where it silently did not work. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2001-08-02 17:38:11] sniper@php.net Have you tried with PHP 4.0.6? And could you also add a short example script into this bug report? --Jani ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2001-08-02 17:34:06] knightemu at yahoo dot com fread does not look like it is reading the EOF. when i use a large (HUDGE) number to tell the fread() how many characters to read, it takes a l o n g time for this to complete!!!! this happens even when the file is very short. i descoverd this when i was trying to read an entire file into a string. is fread the best way to do this?? it does not seem to be working very well. there is also a error reporting problem with fread. after the same number gets too big, php stops processing the entire page, (it does check syntax) there is als no error message when this happens.....
