From: mahesh dot vemula at in dot ibm dot com Operating system: RHEL 4 PHP version: Irrelevant PHP Bug Type: Documentation problem Bug description: Incorrect resource type names for resources: fsockopen(), pfsockopen(), popen()
Description: ------------ fsockopen, pfsockopen, popen, and opendir functions use streams layer Implementation. So, the resources created by these functions are of stream type. But PHP5 documentation shows the resource type names different in http://in2.php.net/manual/en/resource.php Updation in this regard at http://in2.php.net/manual/en/resource.php is required. The Resource type name column should be modified to stream for functions: fsockopen(), pfsockopen(), popen() and opendir() Below code confirms that the resources created by fopen, fsockopen, pfsockopen, popen, and opendir functions are of stream type.
