Reclassified. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2009-01-15 16:25:37] darrel dot opry at gmail dot com a note regarding backwards compatibility. This change shouldn't interfere with existing user defined stream wrappers, since they would not be called with if they used without the authority section currently. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2009-01-15 16:14:16] darrel dot opry at gmail dot com I did RTFM. As a developer and user of PHP I disagree with your assertion. The use and parsing of the URL schema for streams is not the same as that of parse_url which is recommended for parsing incoming paths. The documentation specifically uses the wording URL in many places, right to the point of having a setting for allow_url_fopen. The issue with the current approach is that it does not recognize legally delimited scheme's properly, and pass them to the underlying stream wrapper. It seems to make the invalid assumption that :// or // is the scheme delimiter when it is in fact :. It's a minor parsing issue that could probably be corrected by an experienced C developer in under 20 minutes. Why is this an issue you may ask... parse_url properly parses the scheme, user, password, host, port, and path. If I want to use parse_url within my stream wrapper I have to concatenate the host and path elements if I use a URL in the form of file://path/to/file.txt or I have to use a url in the form of file://localhost/path/to/file.txt if I want to avoid this concatenation. A secondary impact, if I'm storing URLs to resources in the database I now have to store the authority section as well. This is suboptimal for me as a application developer as the number of resources I'm storing references to increases. So maybe you should go RYOFM, before dismissing something out of hand just because it references and RFC without thinking of the implications. Basically I think most developers really want their stream wrapper called if scheme: is properly designated, so they can write standards compliant code. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2009-01-15 15:26:34] j...@php.net RTFM: http://www.php.net/fopen (look for explanation what PHP expects the filename parameter to look like...you can put as many RFCs here, but it's never said anywhere that fopen() expects some RFCs style scheme.. :) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2009-01-12 03:01:10] darrel dot opry at gmail dot com Description: ------------ php_stream_locate_url_wrapper fails without authority section. If a URL is not in the Common Internet Scheme Syntax (scheme://<<user>:<pass>@>host<:port>/url-path) the scheme is not be located properly. So URLs of scheme:relative/path and scheme:/absolute/path will not be handled by the registered user defined stream wrapper. see http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc1738.txt for URL specific syntax. see section 3 of http://labs.apache.org/webarch/uri/rfc/rfc3986.html#intro for URI syntax. Reproduce code: --------------- <?php class wrapper { function stream_open() { print_r(func_get_args()); return TRUE; } } stream_wrapper_register('public', 'wrapper'); fopen('public:path/file.txt', 'r+'); fopen('public:/path/file.txt', 'r+'); fopen('public://path/file.txt', 'r+'); Expected result: ---------------- I expect wrapper::stream_open to be called and fopen to print_r the function arguments. Array ( [0] => public:path/file.txt [1] => r+ [2] => 4 [3] => ) Array ( [0] => public:/path/file.txt [1] => r+ [2] => 4 [3] => ) Array ( [0] => public://path/file.txt [1] => r+ [2] => 4 [3] => ) Actual result: -------------- Warning: fopen(public:path/file.txt): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/dopry/public_html/drupal-media/sites/default/modules/media/resource/test.php on line 13 Warning: fopen(public:/path/file.txt): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/dopry/public_html/drupal-media/sites/default/modules/media/resource/test.php on line 14 Array ( [0] => public://path/file.txt [1] => r+ [2] => 4 [3] => ) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=47070&edit=1
