PHP 4.0 Bug #5455 Updated: readdir() still doesn't work

ID: 5455 User Update by: johan@ekenberg.se Old-Status: Feedback Status: Closed Bug Type: Directory function related Description: readdir() still doesn't work Finally solved thanks to stas@zend.com Should be in CVS soon. Previous Comments: [2000-09-07 03:50:40] johan@ekenberg.se Added closedir() but it doesn't help. I've also added a third example with your exact code request. Try it out here: http://www.ekenberg.se/readdir/index.php Sorry to say it doesn't work either. If you tell me there are really any changes to opendir() in the latest CVS that would motivate an upgrade, I'm willing to try - but this is the third time I'm asked to upgrade to the latest CVS or stable version with the same motivation: "It works for me". But it hasn't still. I'd be happy to provide a user account on the server if that would be of any help. It seems this bugreport more or less duplicates bug no. 5540. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- [2000-09-06 17:50:12] sniper@php.net You don't use closedir() anywhere in your code. Please try this example: <?php $dir = opendir("."); while ($file = readdir($dir)) { if ($file != "." && $file != "..") { echo "$file<br>"; } } closedir($dir); ?> If this doesn't help, upgrade to latest CVS. This works just fine for me. --Jani --------------------------------------------------------------------------- [2000-09-06 05:08:18] johan@ekenberg.se I've still got the problem after upgrade to 4.02. System is libc5 (Slackware 4.0) running 2.2.16. Example code and phpinfo() available here: http://www.ekenberg.se/readdir/index.php --------------------------------------------------------------------------- [2000-09-02 20:13:46] sniper@php.net Please upgrade to php4.0.2. I just tried your example code and it works just fine for me. Reopen if problem still persists. --Jani --------------------------------------------------------------------------- [2000-07-15 09:53:01] johan@ekenberg.se Stefan Kirch [s.kirch at bauer-kirch.de] mailed me: -- start quote -- I have the same problem (#5535) and found a "work-around" like the following: if (ereg("^foo$", $file)) { RegEx works fine, so it seems to be a problom of string-comparison. Codes like if ($x == "5") { also breaks the loop, on the other hand, numerical comparisons like if ($x == 5) { works fine. -- end quote -- I don't know if this might give any clues to the experts? --------------------------------------------------------------------------- The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
