Bug description: RecursiveDirectoryIterator doesn't descend into symlinked
directories
Description:
------------
In a Windows environment, RecursiveDirectoryIterator will treat
symlinked directories as valid directories, descending into them
accordingly. However on Linux this isn't the case, with a symlink being
treated as a file (leaf).
Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
// create a 'proper' directory with a file
mkdir('new_dir');
file_put_contents('new_dir/test.txt', 'test');
// create a symlink to our directory
symlink('new_dir', 'symlink_dir');
$iterator = new RecursiveIteratorIterator(new
RecursiveDirectoryIterator(__DIR__));
foreach($iterator as $object) {
echo $object->getFilename() . "\n";
}
Expected result:
----------------
On Windows Vista, I get this (executed in file test.php):
test.txt
test.txt
test.php
Which I would expect; the symlinked directory is treated as a regular
directory, so the test file appears twice.
Actual result:
--------------
On Linux (same scenario):
test.php
symlink_dir
test.txt
.
..
.
..
The symlinked directory appears, but as a leaf; the contents of the
directory are not discovered.
