Edit report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=70305&edit=1 ID: 70305 Updated by: cmb@php.net Reported by: howellnick at gmail dot com Summary: PharData::decompress() Example 1: $p2 is undefined -Status: Open +Status: Verified Type: Documentation Problem Package: Documentation problem PHP Version: Irrelevant -Assigned To: +Assigned To: cmb Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: Thanks for reporting this issue. The example is definitely wrong, but simply changing to $p->decompress() is not supposed to work, either. It seems the example has been copied from PharData::compress(), and only superficially been adapted. IMO, the example should be replaced with a simple example showing how to decompress an already existing compressed archive.

The line should probably be changed to: $p2 = $p->decompress(); // creates /path/to/my.tar ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=70305&edit=1
