RE: [PHP] Comparing files
Yes! Thanks a lot, "md5_file" suits perfectly well my needs. I've read that 'exec'ing the md5 command is faster... I'll see when performance on large files will become an issue.

[PHP] Comparing files
Hi all, I have a simple question : how can I ensure that 2 files are identical ? How about this ? 8<-- function files_identical($path1, $path2) { return (file_get_contents($path1) == file_get_contents($path2)); } 8<-- Note that I would like to compare any type of files (text and binary).

Yes Jochem, I *now* know what "lookbehind" and "lookahead" assertions are. I think I am *now* able to use them when needed.

Mathieu, I agree with Jochem. If you periodicaly solve issues, such this - you must know about behind assertions in pcre. I ask google, and google give me good manual. http://www.pcre.org/pcre.txt open this page and use brouser search interface to find section PCREPATTERN or PCRE REGULAR EXPRESSION DETAILS it is best manual about PCRE (IMHO) But I don't know - is php pcre fully compatible with pcre library.

[PHP] Match anything between two " that is not a " except if it is escaped...
Hi everyone, I am struggling with regular expression trying to match strings delimited by double quotes, but taking into consideration that \" is not a string ending character. ---8<--- - $in = 'this is a string : "Hi everyone my name is \"Mathieu\"!" Here is a second string : "PHP is just perfect"'; // pattern for catching strings between " $pattern = '#"([^"]*)"#'; // surround matching string with HTML span code to highlight $replacement = '"${1}"'; // perform the reg exp replacement $out = preg_replace($pattern, $replacement, $in); ---8<--- - $out contains : this is a string : "Hi everyone my name is \"Mathieu\"!" Here is a second string : "PHP is just perfect" This behaviour is normal considering my pattern (anything between two " that is not a "). But I don't know how to get this : this is a string : "Hi everyone my name is \"Mathieu\"!" Here is a second string : "PHP is just perfect" I would like my pattern to express : Anything between two " that is not a " except if it is escaped. Thanks for reading me, any help in return is welcome ! -- Mathieu -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
