However, since the argument is not forced to be a reference, it will only work if you pass an explicit reference to the argument, leading to the usual warnings. Changing flock function entry in ext/standard/basic_functions.c like this fixes the problem: PHP_FE(flock,third_arg_force_ref) Reproduce code: --------------- <?php if(!($file=(fopen("testfile","w")))) die("could not open file"); if(flock($file,6,$wouldblock)) echo "could lock ",serialize($wouldblock),"\n"; else echo "failed lock\n"; fclose($file); ?> Expected result: ---------------- could lock i:0; Actual result: -------------- could lock N; ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=26467&edit=1
