Hi Folks,
I have run into a problem using the dir() function.
The following code behaves properly on linux and does not using irix:
Contents of the dir (only folders) are:
CH104/
CH105/
CH120/
ABCDEFGHIJKL/
abcdefghijkl/
When I execute the following code:
chdir("$dir_path");
echo ("Dir Path = $dir_path<br>");
$dir = dir(".");
$dir -> rewind();
$file=$dir->read();
echo ("file is $file<br>\n");
$file=$dir->read();
echo ("file is $file<br>\n");
$file=$dir->read();
echo ("file is $file<br>\n");
$file=$dir->read();
echo ("file is $file<br>\n");
I get the following incorrect results (php 4.0.2, irix 6.5.7)
Dir Path = /Public/Web/db/msds
file is .
file is ..
file is CH104
file is CH105
file is CH120
file is ABCDEFþõ~KL
file is abcdefþõ~kl
So, it appears that if the dir (or file) is less than or equal to 6 char the
dir() function work correctly. However, if it is longer, the name get
garbled.
On a redhat linux box (php 4.0.2), it works fine and I get proper dir names.
This behavior is the same for filenames not just dir names.
I have checked the bugs.php.net and email lists without finding information
related to this problem. Hope I have not missed it some where...
Has anyone seen this or am I missing something? Or, maybe likely, this is
just a bug. If so, I will submit it to the bug database.
Thanks for any suggestions!
Dean
