ID: 51541 Updated by: paj...@php.net Reported by: juwe at clasennet dot de Summary: ZipArchive::addFile does not really add files Status: Open Type: Documentation Problem Package: Zip Related Operating System: Linux PHP Version: 5.3SVN-2010-04-12 (SVN) New Comment: This behavior was the same in previous before but you would not be able to actually delete the file (file lock). It should definitively be part of the documentation. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2010-04-12 11:37:24] juwe at clasennet dot de Description: ------------ Could you please let the documentation for ZipArchive::addFile() reflect, that the function doesn't really add the added files content to the zip archive any longer? As it seems, the files content is only read when storing the files now, as opposed to 5.2.8. So, if you delete a file directly after adding it to a zip archive, the archive won't be created any longer. I'm not really sure, if this is a bug, since the return value of addFile() isn't true any longer, or if this is just a documentation problem. Personaly, I don't care either way. I just spend about two hours, until I realized where the problem was. Having a reminder in the docs would have reduced this time down to about five minutes... There is a bug report (#40494) talking about such information in the manual, but the bug was marked bogus, and the manual was never updated. Essentially, that's why I opened this one as a documentation problem. Test script: --------------- <?php // works in PHP 5.2.8: $zipArchive='/path/2/my/archive'; $filesToAdd=array('/path/2/file1.ext', '/path/2/file2.ext', '/path/2/file3.ext'); $zip=new ZipArchive(); if(true===$zip->open($zipArchive,ZIPARCHIVE::CREATE)) foreach($filesToAdd as $file) if($zip->addFile($file,basename($file))) unlink($file); $zip->close(); /* Expected result: * Zip archive exists and contains the right data * * Actual result: * Version 5.2.8: * - Works flawlessly & as expected * Version 5.3.99-dev * - No zip archive created * - ZipArchive::GetStatusString reports a read error, * but only after closing the file */ ?> Expected result: ---------------- Zip archive exists and contains the right data. Actual result: -------------- Version 5.2.8: - Works flawlessly & as expected Version 5.3.99-dev - No zip archive created - ZipArchive::GetStatusString reports a read error, but only after closing the file ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=51541&edit=1
