Re: A virtual file system.

I had a quick look at this - it is very in keeping with hordes style of returning arrays for alot of things. - It would have been nicer to have an api which was more object based eg. $folder = VFS::factory('file:/home/me'); if ($folder->isDir) {

    $folder->opendir();

while ($folder->eof()) {

       $item = $folder->fetch();
       if ($item->isFile()) {
           echo $item->getContents();
       }

} } $file = VFS::factory('file:/home/me/myfile'); if (!$file->exists()) { $file->touch(); } if ( !$file->isSymlink()) { $file->write($somedata); } $file->rename('xxxx'); echo $file->basename(); echo $file->dirname(); echo $file->protocol(); echo $file->canWrite(); echo $file->canRead(); it would make the return values easier to document, and a little simpler... - but anyway since I dont have enought time to much more than comment.. - just a few 2c for the moment...

My thoughts as well - I saw this in Horde a while back, and thought it could be useful for other things as well. How much does it rely on the Horde framework to be used? Jon Quoting Richard Heyes <richard@v-webmail.co.uk>:

HTTP I

hadn't thought of, but that's certainly a possibility too.

Could this be added to PEAR? It appears to be quite cool. -- Richard Heyes -- PEAR Development Mailing List (http://pear.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
