ID: 53328 Updated by: cataphr...@php.net Reported by: mike at silverorange dot com -Summary: stream_flush error does not cause copy to return false +Summary: copy() returns false even if closing the destination file fails Status: Open Type: Bug Package: Streams related Operating System: Linux PHP Version: 5.3.3 Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: The function you should be testing would be fflush, not copy. fflush does actually return false. The flush operation is called for collaterals when closing the file. copy() should probably return false if closing, at least, the destination file fails, but it's a risky move because in PHP, for better or worse, the return value of php_stream_close and friends is almost always ignored. We'd be giving significance to something that's almost always ignored. Maybe for trunk...

I tested using the phpt and the raw PHP file, and both fail as described in the original bug report. This is using php 5.3.3 as provided by Ubuntu. I don't see the directory error you describe. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2010-11-17 15:43:14] t...@php.net Hey Mike, I wanted to write a test case but I fail to reproduce this on 5.3.2 so far. E.g., I wrapped your code into a phpt, all I get is: Warning: copy(): The second argument to copy() function cannot be a directory in /home/till/test/bug53328.php on line 60 bool(false) [ On a sidenote, I don't get this error message either. 'foo' is not a directory, but maybe this means that we have to implement more in the example wrapper for it to work, or this is another bug in the streamwrapper?] Anyway, aside from the weird error message it seems to work indeed on 5.3.2. Here is your code wrapped in a phpt: http://friendpaste.com/7Id22SbWNEBnwLhi9FnSTu Execute with: pear run-tests bug53328.phpt ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2010-11-17 06:48:23] mike at silverorange dot com Description: ------------ In a custom stream wrapper if stream_flush() returns false as the documentation says it may, parent copy operations do not return false. Test script: --------------- http://labs.silverorange.com/files/php-stream-wrapper/test.phps http://labs.silverorange.com/files/php-stream-wrapper/test.txt Expected result: ---------------- copy should return false. Actual result: -------------- copy returns true. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=53328&edit=1
