Kalle, it allows to set default value to NULL like: function foo($v=NULL) { $fileInfo = new finfo(FILEINFO_MIME, $v); } without having to test for $v. Other PHP functions act like that. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2010-05-04 10:49:00] pajoye@php.net Automatic comment from SVN on behalf of pajoye Revision: http://svn.php.net/viewvc/?view=revision&revision=298947 Log: - Fixed bug #51732, Fileinfo __construct or open does not work with NULL ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
