PHP version: 5.3.14
Package: cURL related
Bug Type: Bug
Bug description:curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_COOKIEFILE, "") returns false
Description:
------------
According to the documentation for the CURLOPT_COOKIEFILE option: "The
name of the file containing the cookie data. The cookie file can be in
Netscape format, or just plain HTTP-style headers dumped into a file. If
the name is an empty string, no cookies are loaded, but cookie handling is
still enabled." . In previous version (e.g. 5.3.13)
curl_setopt($ch,CURLOPT_COOKIEFILE, "") returned TRUE, but in 5.3.14 it
returns FALSE. It seems like a regression caused by the fix of Bug #61948.
Tested on Debian 7 and Ubuntu 12.04.
Test script:
---------------
<?php
$ch = curl_init("http://php.net");
var_dump(curl_setopt($ch,CURLOPT_COOKIEFILE, ""));
Expected result:
----------------
bool(true)
Actual result:
--------------
bool(false)
