Using the CURL module in previous versions of PHP you could upload a file in a HTTP
multipart formpost in a script like this:
$ch = curl_init($APP);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, array
('sampfile'=>"@$sampfile"));
$postResult = curl_exec($ch);
curl_close($ch);
With 4.1.0 (and what's currently in CVS), the CURL module has been modified to use the
more proper libcurl function to deal with formposts, but it has the side-effect that
pre-pending a file name with @ no longer works.
This is something that needs to be checked for and addressed in the ext/curl/curl.c
source code if the above functionality is still wanted.
The functionality with a @-prepended file name is not documented anywhere in the PHP
curl documentation AFAIK, but there are users out there that have found about this
feature (it is a standard curl way of doing it using the command line) so there might
be a point to continue supporting this.
(I am the libcurl maintainer, this report is based solely on source code auditing, I
have not ran any PHP code to find out.)
