Req #55528 [NEW]: Values for the "whence" parameter of the "stream_seek" method should be changed

From: Operating system: Linux PHP version: 5.3.8 Package: Documentation problem Bug Type: Feature/Change Request Bug description:Values for the "whence" parameter of the "stream_seek" method should be changed Description: ------------ It's documented that the streamWrapper::stream_seek method accepts the following values for the $whence parameter: SEEK_SET - Set position equal to offset bytes. SEEK_CUR - Set position to current location plus offset. SEEK_END - Set position to end-of-file plus offset. But the SEEK_CUR value gets never be passed to this method because SEEK_CUR seeks are internally converted to SEEK_SET seeks. Expected result: ---------------- The possible values for the "whence" parameter of the "stream_seek" method should only be SEEK_SET and SEEK_END. And there should be a hint that the SEEK_CUR seeks are internally converted to SEEK_SET seeks. -- Edit bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=55528&edit=1 -- Try a snapshot (PHP 5.4): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55528&r=trysnapshot54 Try a snapshot (PHP 5.3): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55528&r=trysnapshot53 Try a snapshot (trunk): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55528&r=trysnapshottrunk Fixed in SVN: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55528&r=fixed Fixed in SVN and need be documented: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55528&r=needdocs Fixed in release: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55528&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55528&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55528&r=needscript Try newer version: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55528&r=oldversion Not developer issue: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55528&r=support Expected behavior: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55528&r=notwrong Not enough info: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55528&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55528&r=submittedtwice register_globals: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55528&r=globals PHP 4 support discontinued: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55528&r=php4 Daylight Savings: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55528&r=dst IIS Stability: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55528&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55528&r=gnused Floating point limitations: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55528&r=float No Zend Extensions: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55528&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55528&r=mysqlcfg
