Bug description: possible wrong behavior of fgetcsv (?)
Description:
------------
Assume a file with 1 line of text (toImport.csv) and a [newline] after the
last char in that line.
The code below will echo "2" (Lines) using either fgets or fgetcsv.
While this is right for fgets, it's wrong for fgetcsv (I think), because
in CSV-Files the [newline] (logically) terminates a row, it doesn't start
a new one - at least if you think of a CSV-File as a Recordset from a
SQL-Statement (If you read the last "line" of a SQL-Result, move the
Row-Pointer to the next row and try to read it, you'll get false/EOF and
not a row with 0 elements).
If you return the Array "$data" in each iteration you get a array with
(int) 0 elements as last row, what makes using a loop until EOF
impossible, because you (additionally) have to check the number of
elements returned in $data.
It's quite anoying, that fgetcsv makes difference if a csv-file is
terminated by a newline or not.
Reproduce code:
---------------
$fh = fopen(dirname(__FILE__)."/toImport.csv","r");
$row = 0;
while (!feof($fh)) {
$data = fgetcsv($fh,1000,";");
// $data = fgets($fh,1000);
$row++;
}
echo($row);
Expected result:
----------------
fgetcsv should echo 1, while fgets should echo 2
