From: icemaze at tiscalinet dot it Operating system: Gentoo GNU/Linux PHP version: 4.3.4 PHP Bug Type: Feature/Change Request Bug description: debug_backtrace() file information are realpath()ed
Description: ------------ When I backtrace my program I usually extract file and line information to print them on screen. I have my webspace in /var/www/localhost/htdocs, so I usually get very long filenames. Then I modified my program to strip $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] from the path. This is useful because you can add "http://www.domain.com/"; and get the file's URI. I also created a symbolic link (/var/www/localhost/htdocs/development => /home/icemaze/development) to be able to test my subversion tree under Apache. And here's the problem: debug_backtrace() returns filenames in the following form: "/home/icemaze/development/index.php" (i.e. as if they had been realpath()ed). This causes problems since I cannot strip "DOCUMENT_ROOT" from them. Besides, I don't want to strip an arbitrary path from them. It would be nice if you could change the behaviour of debug_backtrace() so that it returned untranslated paths (you can always realpath() them manually if you really want to!). Do you think it's possible without too much trouble for you? Are there reasons for which things are as they are?
