To your point of view, that may be inconsistent; however, this
behavior is consistent to others.
By default, Apples ships their machines with HFS+ volumes that are
case-insensitive, but case-preserving. With this setup,
recordsModel.class.php will be stored correctly in its file system,
but you can access it via RecordsModel.class.php or
recordsmodel.class.php.
PHP is just a C application. Thus, fread() or file_get_contents()
will use standard C calls such as fopen() underneath. Under Mac OS X,
the C calls will not fail if it is given a wrong capitalization
because the file system doesn't care. This is expected behavior.
By default, Linux and Unix systems use case-sensitive and
case-preserving file systems. With this setup, recordsModel.class.php
and RecordsModel.class.php are two different files, and can co-exist
within a single directory. In this environment, the C calls will fail
if it is given a wrong capitalization because the file system cares.
This is expected behavior.
In my world, as a FreeBSD user, getModel('records') should fail for
model "Records". I strongly disagree that Agavi's behavior be changed
to adapt to wrong expected behavior.
