Bug #51569 [NEW]: Documentation of include missing fallback to calling script's cwd

From: Operating system: PHP version: 5.3.2 Package: Documentation problem Bug Type: Bug Bug description:Documentation of include missing fallback to calling script's cwd Description: ------------ The documentation of include (http://php.net/manual/en/function.include.php) is missing an important fact: If PHP cannot identify the filename as a stream wrapper, a relative or absolute path and cannot find filename in one of the include paths, it will fall back to the calling script's current working directory. See http://svn.php.net/viewvc/php/php-src/trunk/main/fopen_wrappers.c?view=markup on lines 602 - 638. I spent some nice hours to find that out, I think it really should be a documented feature. -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=51569&edit=1 -- Try a snapshot (PHP 5.2): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=51569&r=trysnapshot52 Try a snapshot (PHP 5.3): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=51569&r=trysnapshot53 Try a snapshot (PHP 6.0): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=51569&r=trysnapshot60 Fixed in SVN: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=51569&r=fixed Fixed in SVN and need be documented: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=51569&r=needdocs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=51569&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=51569&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=51569&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=51569&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=51569&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=51569&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=51569&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=51569&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=51569&r=globals PHP 4 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=51569&r=php4 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=51569&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=51569&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=51569&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=51569&r=float No Zend Extensions: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=51569&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=51569&r=mysqlcfg
