Wow only 6 years too late for suggested changes. Changes were made to use streams, the end. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2009-02-05 14:54:38] spam2 at rhsoft dot net Description: ------------ > As of PHP 5.0.0, this function can also be used with some URL > wrappers. Refer to List of Supported Protocols/Wrappers for > a listing of which wrappers support stat() family of functionality. Which fool has decided to make such a MAJOR-CHANGE for functions like "is_file()" as default instead of enable this only with a new optional parameter? You will break EVERY check in applications if the given path is a local file! Revert this completly or add a parameter to enable it Has anybody ever thougt that this can make SECURITY-PROBLEMS in some cases? I hope no one wites a new function like "is_real_file" as seen at "mysql_escape_string/mysql_real_escape_string", this is crap and sometimes i wonder why many people are not thinking before doing! Reproduce code: --------------- $path = 'ftp://user:p...@host/file.txt'; if(is_file($path)) { echo 'yes'; } else { echo 'no'; } Expected result: ---------------- no Actual result: -------------- yes ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=47315&edit=1
