note 74159 added to function.file-exists

developing a CMS, with a link checker, it caused issues that when running on Win32, file_exists shows no error for case differences between the file on disk and the file you query for. this causes an issue when putting content created on the Win32 box onto a *NIX box. the following is a function to test for files with case sensitivity, regardless of the OS. it returns 1 for a match, 0 for fails, and 2 if the file exists but with a different case. function file_exists_case($strUrl) { $realPath = str_replace('\\','/',realpath($strUrl)); if(file_exists($strUrl) && $realPath == $strUrl) { return 1; //File exists, with correct case } elseif(file_exists($realPath)) { return 2; //File exists, but wrong case } else { return 0; //File does not exist } } ---- Server IP: 203.16.234.91 Probable Submitter: 152.91.9.228 (proxied: unknown) ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.file-exists.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/74159 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/74159/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/74159/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/74159/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/74159/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/74159/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/74159/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/74159 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/74159 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
