Edit report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=80396&edit=1 ID: 80396 Comment by: danack@php.net Reported by: 2016teemo at google dot com Summary: Please support apline's GLOB_BRACE Status: Wont fix Type: Documentation Problem Package: *Extensibility Functions Operating System: apline PHP Version: 7.2.34 Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: There's a fallback method in zendframework - which may or may not work https://github.com/zendframework/zend-stdlib/blob/6d965efcce81ee60e2b425792f1cd3f27aed82d9/src/Glob.php#L97-L168 Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2020-11-21 14:44:47] danack@php.net Sorry, I just realised the other ticket doesn't contain a work around. You'd need to expand it yourself.... "They are used during expansion of the brace expression of the deeper level. The example below shows this glob ("{foo/{,bar,biz},baz}", GLOB_BRACE, NULL, &result) is equivalent to the sequence glob ("foo/", GLOB_BRACE, NULL, &result) glob ("foo/bar", GLOB_BRACE|GLOB_APPEND, NULL, &result) glob ("foo/biz", GLOB_BRACE|GLOB_APPEND, NULL, &result) glob ("baz", GLOB_BRACE|GLOB_APPEND, NULL, &result)" ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2020-11-21 14:36:04] danack@php.net Unmarking as duplicate, as the other bug is actually about the doc editor code...but it's still not something that can be fixed in PHP. You need to persuade the people who maintain Musl to add it. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2020-11-21 14:33:58] danack@php.net Duplicate of https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=72095 To be clear, the standard C library used on Alpine which is called Musl does not support GLOB_BRACE. There is no way for PHP to 'support' something that does not exist on the platform that you're running PHP on. I suggest using the workaround in the other ticket, or not using Alpine if you need GLOB_BRACE support. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2020-11-21 14:25:34] 2016teemo at google dot com Description: ------------ --- From manual page: https://php.net/function.glob --- Please support apline's GLOB_BRACE ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=80396&edit=1
