ID: 12321 Updated by: hholzgra Reported By: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Status: Open Bug Type: Feature/Change Request Operating System: Linux PHP Version: 4.0.6 New Comment: it's just the name of the C function/system call doing the same job Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2001-07-23 13:34:22] [EMAIL PROTECTED] reclassified ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2001-07-23 13:22:48] [EMAIL PROTECTED] The ftruncate function is poorly named, as it can be used to enlarge a file, not just truncate it. I suggest creating an alias to this function, "fresize", to make it clear that a file can be arbitrarially resized. I also suggest that the manual be updated to indicate that ftruncate can enlarge a file as well: "Changes a file's size", rather than, "truncates a file to a given length. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=12321&edit=1 -- PHP Development Mailing List <http://www.php.net/> To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
