Edit report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=63069&edit=1 ID: 63069 Updated by: googleguy@php.net Reported by: bhsmither at gmail dot com Summary: GLOB_NOCHECK Results -Status: Open +Status: Feedback Type: Documentation Problem Package: Documentation problem Operating System: Irrelevant PHP Version: Irrelevant Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: Thank you for this bug report. To properly diagnose the problem, we need a short but complete example script to be able to reproduce this bug ourselves. A proper reproducing script starts with <?php and ends with ?>, is max. 10-20 lines long and does not require any external resources such as databases, etc. If the script requires a database to demonstrate the issue, please make sure it creates all necessary tables, stored procedures etc. Please avoid embedding huge scripts into the report. I can not reproduce your problem. <?php $language='L:\WebServer\htdocs\language\es-ES'; $qqq=glob(' with '.$language.'{-custom,-normal}.xml', GLOB_BRACE | GLOB_NOCHECK); print_r($qqq); ?> This returns: Array ( [0] => with L:\WebServer\htdocs\language\es-ES{-custom,-normal}.xml ) For me, which is the expected output according to the documentation. Can you please provide the output you get and include which version of PHP you're using and on what Operating System Software. Thanks.

Tests indicate that the search pattern is not returned 'verbatim', but rather an array (with wildcard characters in place) with each array element representing one possible combination of braced options, the whole array having all possible combinations.
