From: mpb dot mail at gmail dot com Operating system: Irrelevant PHP version: Irrelevant PHP Bug Type: Documentation problem Bug description: Docs question: is __FILE__ === realpath (__FILE__) always true?
Description: ------------ On this page: http://www.php.net/manual/en/language.constants.predefined.php There is a comment: "mark at trilab dot ch 18-Apr-2003 10:44 Consider using realpath(__FILE__) to get absolute paths." However, it appears that on PHP 5.0.3 on FreeBSD realpath(__FILE__) is redundant. It would be nice (for the sake of writing portable code) if the docs could say which versions of PHP remove symbolic links from __FILE__. Perhaps they all do? But then why would someone have added the comment?
