Bug->Doc #66405 [Opn]: RecursiveDirectoryIterator::CURRENT_AS_PATHNAME breaks the RecursiveIterator

Edit report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=66405&edit=1 ID: 66405 Updated by: requinix@php.net Reported by: stof at notk dot org Summary: RecursiveDirectoryIterator::CURRENT_AS_PATHNAME breaks the RecursiveIterator Status: Open -Type: Bug +Type: Documentation Problem Package: SPL related PHP Version: 5.5.7 Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: This is expected behavior: the inner Iterator's getChildren() must return something that is, itself, a RecursiveIterator, otherwise the whole idea of recursive iteration is impossible. But I don't see that spelled out in the documentation so I'm changing this to a doc bug.
