Edit report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=29045&edit=1 ID: 29045 Comment by: ascii88 at mail dot ru Reported by: fcartegnie at nordnet dot fr Summary: gzopen for URL Status: Suspended Type: Documentation Problem Package: Documentation problem Operating System: * PHP Version: 4.3.7 Assigned To: pollita Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: fopen('compress.zlib://php://temp', 'r'); works fine. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2010-04-05 17:52:21] zelnaga at gmail dot com This doesn't seem to work. fopen('compress.zlib://php://temp', 'r+'); When I try it I get the following: Warning: fopen(compress.zlib://php://temp): failed to open stream: operation failed in C:\htdocs\www\test.php on line 1 Per this, though, it seems like it should work? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2007-02-19 13:20:09] infos at firmalarsirketler dot com thank you for this nice site ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-07-08 11:22:48] helly@php.net You cannot drop STREAM_MUST_SEEK because the handler uses seek. In case of http or ftp or what ever forward streams a temporary file is created automatically so it still works as expected. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-07-07 22:17:42] pollita@php.net Wez needs to chime in on this... I stated that it wouldn't work for http (with or without the patch) because I thought we had disabled shrinking the chunk_size to 1 while reading into the HTTP headers (for performance reasons). Looking back at the code I see that the temporary shift into small chuck sizes *IS* enabled when the STREAM_WILL_CAST flag is set (which it is for the zlib fopen wrapper). Maybe it was the conditional set based on the option flag that was the compromise... in which case I'd say: Go ahead and use fopen('compress.zlib://http://blah...',... but the patch provided for gzopen() seems completely unnecessary. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-07-07 16:16:46] derick@php.net compress.zlib://http://host.file.gz should work fine in php 4, not? include "compress.zlib://file.php.gz"; works too ;-) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
