note 78514 added to function.realpath

eric at themepark dot com noted that realpath() strips off the trailing directory separator. This is only correct for PHP4! PHP5 seems to have silently "corrected" this behaviour, now leaving the trailing separator. This can result in incorrect behaviour if your path isn't meant to contain a trailing separator. eg: PHP4: realpath("some/path/with/a/trailing/slash/") => "[root]/some/path/with/a/trailing/slash" PHP5: realpath("some/path/with/a/trailing/slash/") => "[root]/some/path/with/a/trailing/slash/" ---- Server IP: 202.89.58.1 Probable Submitter: 60.234.58.162 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.realpath.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/78514 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/78514/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/78514/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/78514/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/78514/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/78514/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/78514/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/78514 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/78514 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
