>>"First you must explicitly destruct objects holding resources to free
the resources."

I understand the need to free the resources, but none of the examples
of implementing a filter on a directoryiterator have any destruction
code and the DirectoryIterator does not have a __destruct() method to
call, nor does the FilterIterator.

I tried to understand what you meant and the only way I can see of
doing this is to create the object and pass that to the foreach()
construct.

e.g.

<?php
$o_DIR = new FileTypeList('C:\\TEMP', 'CSV'); 
foreach($o_DIR as $o_FILE)
        {
        }
$o_DIR->__destruct();
?>

Fatal error: Call to undefined method DirectoryIterator::__destruct()
in C:\t2.php

Replaced the $o_DIR->__destruct(); with unset($o_DIR); but that did not
make any difference.

I recently passed my ZCE, so hopefully I should get SOME leaway here.
Maybe I'm missing something in the SPL documentation. But as the only
examples with __destruct in them are in dbaarray.inc and dbareader.inc
I hope I can be forgiven for assuming that the destruction of the file
handle would be handled automatically when the object was killed off.

If I add a __destruct method to my FileTypeList, it is called
automatically on the exit of the foreach ...

<?php
class FileTypeList extends FilterIterator
        {
        protected
                $s_Type;

        function __construct($s_Path, $s_Type)
                {
                $this->s_Type = $s_Type;
                parent::__construct(new DirectoryIterator($s_Path));
                }

        function __destruct()
                {
                echo "Destruction called\n";
                }

        function accept()
                {
                $b_Result = (strcasecmp($this->s_Type, 
pathinfo($this->current(),
PATHINFO_EXTENSION)) !== 0);
                return $b_Result;
                }
        }

$am_Files = array();
while(count($am_Files) < 1000)
        {
        echo "Looking\n";
        foreach(new FileTypeList('C:\\TEMP', 'CSV') as $o_FILE)
                {
                if ($o_FILE->isFile())
                        {
                        $am_Files[] = array
                                (
                                'Modified' => $o_FILE->getMTime(),
                                'Name' => str_replace('/', DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR,
$o_FILE->getPathname()),
                                );
                        rename($s_FileName, 'C:\\TEMP\\JUNK\\' . 
basename($s_FileName));
                        echo "Found $s_FileName\n";
                        }
                }
        }
print_r($am_Files);
?>

produces output of ...

Looking
Destruction called
Looking
Destruction called
Looking
Destruction called
Looking
Destruction called
Looking
Destruction called
...

But as the parent has no destructor method to call and the
directoryiterator has no destruct method to call, implementing one in
my class is pointless.

I was expecting to see something like this in spl_directory.c ...

/* {{{ spl_filesystem_dir_close */
/* close a directory resource */
static void spl_filesystem_dir_close(....)


I can see how they are opened but not how they are closed and because
they are not closed, they are not destroyed.

BUT I am probably wrong and I can't see it.

Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not
a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at
http://www.php.net/manual/ and the instructions on how to report
a bug at http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php

First you must explicitly destruct objects holding resources to free
the resources.

Second instead of "'Modified' => filemtime($s_FileName),
" you should be using "$o_File->getATime()" or getMTime() or
getCTime().

Sidenote there is no reason to use \ instead / unless you were
generating batch files. If you are using \ because of any PHP function
then you should open a bug report for that.

Description:
------------
Using a FilterIterator on a DirectoryIterator does not close the handle
of the directory being iterated.

If I do not use a FilterIterator and process the files manually from
the DirectoryIterator, the handle is released.

To see this in action ...

Place a bunch of CSV files in the C:\TEMP directory and create a
C:\TEMP\JUNK directory.

The code below will loop until it has 1000 CSV files.

Using System Internals Process Explorer you can see that the number of
handles used by php.exe goes up and up and up.

I have several programs which loop over a directory repeatedly. I have
stopped using the FilterIterator and use just a DirectoryIterator and
then manually filter the filenames.

Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
class FileTypeList extends FilterIterator
        {
        protected
                $s_Type;

        function __construct($s_Path, $s_Type)
                {
                $this->s_Type = $s_Type;
                parent::__construct(new DirectoryIterator($s_Path));
                }

        function accept()
                {
                $b_Result = (strcasecmp($this->s_Type, 
pathinfo($this->current(),
PATHINFO_EXTENSION)) !== 0);
                return $b_Result;
                }
        }

$am_Files = array();
while(count($am_Files) < 1000)
        {
        echo "Looking\n";
        foreach(new FileTypeList('C:\\TEMP', 'CSV') as $o_FILE)
                {
                if ($o_FILE->isFile())
                        {
                        $s_FileName = str_replace('/', DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR,
$o_FILE->getPathname()); // Directory separator required for windows
filenames.
                        $am_Files[] = array
                                (
                                'Modified' => filemtime($s_FileName),
                                'Name' => $s_FileName,
                                );
                        rename($s_FileName, 'C:\\TEMP\\JUNK\\' . 
basename($s_FileName));
                        echo "Found $s_FileName\n";
                        }
                }
        }
print_r($am_Files);
?>

Expected result:
----------------
File handles to open and close as required.

Actual result:
--------------
File handles are opened and stay open. System resources get used up.
