[PHP-DEV] PHP 4.0 Bug #9504: is_file doesn't seem to work From: baylor.wetzel <email protected>
Date: 02/28/01

From: baylor.wetzel <email protected>
Operating system: debian
PHP version: 4.0.4pl1
PHP Bug Type: Filesystem function related
Bug description: is_file doesn't seem to work

In the docs for is_dir, i'm not sure if it wants a file name or a path name + file name. Either way, it doesn't seem to work on my debian/PHP4 (downloaded from dselect)/Apache box

Here's the script i'm attempting:

//--- List all the files in a directory
//--- Directory we're going after is /clients/data/
function get_files( $current_directory )
{
  $directory = dir( $current_directory );

  $file_list = array();
  while ($element = $directory->read()) {
    //--- The following line is never true
    if (is_file($element)) {
      $file_list[$element] = $element;
    } //--- if is_file
else {
  echo "Not a file: $element<br>\n";
  $path_and_name = $current_directory . $element;
  if (is_file($path_and_name)) {
    echo "Not a file: $path_and_name<br>\n";
  }
}
  } //--- while $element = $directory->read()
                                                 
  //--- Directory list doesn't seem to be sorted,
  //--- so let's sort it
  asort($file_list);

  $directory->close();

  //--- Tell them what we've learned
  return $file_list;
} //--- get_files

-b
