note 91363 added to function.fopen

I was wondering why was added the "x" mode, it works only if the file do not exists, will create it and open it in read only, it's useless !! But I found something I could do with that. Here is a little mk_file function. <?php function mk_file($filename) { if(!is_file($filename)) { fclose(fopen($filename,"x")); //create the file and close it return true; } else return false; //file already exists } ?> You can improve it, add chmod support etc... ---- Server IP: 89.31.146.176 Probable Submitter: 90.3.255.169 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.fopen.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/91363 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/91363/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/91363/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/91363/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/91363/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/91363/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/91363/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/91363 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/91363 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
