 New Comment:

The fact that this function does not have a consistent result means that
we will have to rewrite it (in php). Wouldn't it be a lot better to make
sure the behaviour of the function (yes or no trailing slash) is a fact
instead of an unknown?

Does it really make sense that this function behaves so inconsistently
about its 

trailing slashes between Linux and Win?:



LINUX (tested with PHP 5.2.11):

---

realpath('.')

: string = "/myhttpdfolder" 

realpath('./')

: string = "/myhttpdfolder" 

realpath('fileadmin')

: string = "/myhttpdfolder/fileadmin" 

realpath('fileadmin/')

: string = "/myhttpdfolder/fileadmin" 



WINDOWS (tested with PHP 5.2.5):

---

realpath('.')

: string = "C:\\myhttpdfolder" 

realpath('./')

: string = "C:\\myhttpdfolder\\" 

realpath('fileadmin')

: string = "C:\\myhttpdfolder\\fileadmin" 

realpath('fileadmin/')

: string = "C:\\myhttpdfolder\\fileadmin\\"

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

Description:
------------
<?php

        echo realpath( './' ) ;

?>



This code in PHP 5.2.4 gives an output with trailing slash (example:
C:\www\)

PHP 5.2.3 not (example: C:\www).



Who is right? Tested on WinXP.
