Edit report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=75485&edit=1 ID: 75485 Updated by: vrana@php.net Reported by: erik at evanv dot nl Summary: rewinddir incorrect return type -Status: Open +Status: Closed Type: Documentation Problem Package: Documentation problem Operating System: Linux PHP Version: 7.1.11 -Assigned To: +Assigned To: vrana Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: Added: "Returns NULL on success or FALSE on failure." I've kept the return type as void because PHP Manual documents only the main return type and doesn't put the information about functions returning FALSE in case of an error (which is very common) into the signature.
