Doc #71367 [NEW]: claim mime_content_type is deprecated

From: divinity76 at gmail dot com Operating system: PHP version: Irrelevant Package: Documentation problem Bug Type: Documentation Problem Bug description:claim mime_content_type is deprecated Description: ------------ according to http://php.net/manual/en/function.mime-content-type.php , mime_content_type() is deprecated, but it doesn't say when it was deprecated, and when testing on 3v4l.org , seems it never throws a E_DEPRECATED or similar, and a guy on freenode #php said: <salathe> hanshenrik__: the deprecation message is a hangover from the old mime_magic extension that the function used to be in, before Fileinfo came along thus i wonder, is it really deprecated? and when, if ever, was it deprecated? could we get some more documentation here? Test script: --------------- <?php error_reporting(~0); ini_set("display_erronrs","on"); var_dump(mime_content_type(__FILE__)); -- Edit bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=71367&edit=1 -- Try a snapshot (PHP 5.4): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=71367&r=trysnapshot54 Try a snapshot (PHP 5.5): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=71367&r=trysnapshot55 Try a snapshot (trunk): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=71367&r=trysnapshottrunk Fixed in SVN: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=71367&r=fixed Fixed in release: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=71367&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=71367&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=71367&r=needscript Try newer version: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=71367&r=oldversion Not developer issue: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=71367&r=support Expected behavior: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=71367&r=notwrong Not enough info: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=71367&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=71367&r=submittedtwice register_globals: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=71367&r=globals PHP 4 support discontinued: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=71367&r=php4 Daylight Savings: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=71367&r=dst IIS Stability: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=71367&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=71367&r=gnused Floating point limitations: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=71367&r=float No Zend Extensions: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=71367&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=71367&r=mysqlcfg
