Bug #10898 Updated: is_dir && filetype return wrong values

ID: 10898 User Update by: yves@monet.be Status: Bogus Bug Type: Filesystem function related Operating system: Win ME & Win NT 4.0 PHP Version: 4.0.5 Description: is_dir && filetype return wrong values Hello, than the docs in my book are wrong, it says file instead of path. Sorry for wasting your time... Previous Comments: --------------------------------------------------------------------------- [2001-05-16 10:53:13] cynic@php.net this is bogus. you have to either chdir() into the $parent or is_dir() the full path. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- [2001-05-16 08:35:02] yves@monet.be A little script that should echo alle filetypes of all files in any subdir of the parent provided. Now I use opendir to test wether the file is a dir, but this isn't a good solution, is it? The is_dir() allways returns false the filetype() allwyas returns dir <?php function getFileInfo($parent) { $handle = opendir($parent); while ($file = readdir($handle)) { $filelist[]=$file ; } reset($filelist); while(list(,$f)=each ($filelist)) { if ($f!="." && $f!="..") { if(is_dir($f)) { getFileInfo($f); } else { echo filetype($f); } } } } getFileInfo("c:datapdf"); ?> --------------------------------------------------------------------------- [2001-05-16 06:23:07] derick@php.net Please provide a short script so that we can reproduce it.

I don't know if this bug is allready reported. the is_dir() allways returns false except for "." && ".." the filetype() allways returns dir --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Full Bug description available at: http://bugs.php.net/?id=10898
