#35495 [Asn->Bgs]: feof() does not report EOF on a zero file

ID: 35495 Updated by: tony2001@php.net Reported By: dsp at tdcspace dot dk -Status: Assigned +Status: Bogus Bug Type: Filesystem function related Operating System: linux/win PHP Version: 5CVS, 4CVS (2005-11-30) (snap) Assigned To: wez New Comment: I get the same result with this C code: #include <stdlib.h> #include <stdio.h> int main() { FILE *fd; fd = fopen("/tmp/xxx", "r"); while (!feof(fd)) { char buf[100]; fgets(buf, 100, fd); // remove that and you'll get endless cycle printf("read\n"); } fclose(fd); return 0; } (it reads once and stops just after that) Doesn't look like a bug to me. PHP behaves in the same way as the underlying OS.

The PHP handle as a file descriptor resource should among things maintain this. But i don't maintain php and thus don't know the reasons. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-11-30 22:40:21] dsp at tdcspace dot dk nope - 5.1.2.2 cvs - same story - feof() still ignores a zero file ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-11-30 18:42:43] sniper@php.net No, try the 5.1 snapshot. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-11-30 18:42:21] dsp at tdcspace dot dk is there a cvs for 4.4.1 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
