ID: 61523 User updated by: marc at lamarciana dot com Reported by: marc at lamarciana dot com Summary: First call to fgets in SplFileObject doesn't increase file pointer position Status: Not a bug Type: Bug Package: SPL related Operating System: Debian squeeze PHP Version: 5.3.10 Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: Ok, I see, thank you. I think my confusion arose because fgets() reads next line from the file, but when no line has been read, fgets then reads current line, which is line 0. If when no line has been read we should consider we are somehow before line 0, then calling key() before reading any line maybe should return something different than 0, maybe -1 or false. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2012-03-28 13:07:37] cataphr...@php.net This seems correct. The first line is line 0, not 1. The error is that you're calling key() before the first line is read. You should do it after (or just use a foreach loop). ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2012-03-27 07:54:26] marc at lamarciana dot com Description: ------------ Calling key() method in a new SplFileObject gives 0. This is the expected result. If you call now fgets() method and again key() method it gives again 0 as a result. I think this is not the expected behavior. Subsequent calls to fgets() followed by key() method increases the result by 1 (1, 2, 3...). This is again the expected result. The behavior is the same with SplFileObject::READ_AHEAD flag.
