<para>
When you use <function>stat</function>, <function>lstat</function>, or
any of the other functions listed in the affected functions list (below),
PHP caches the information those functions return in order to provide
faster performance. However, in certain cases, you may want to clear the
cached information. For instance, if the same file is being checked
multiple times within a single script, and that file is in danger of
being removed or changed during that script's operation, you may elect to
clear the status cache. In these cases, you can use the
<function>clearstatcache</function> function to clear the information
that PHP caches about a file.
</para>
<para>
You should also note that PHP doesn't cache information about non-existent
files. So, if you call <function>file_exists</function> on a file that
doesn't exist, it will return &false; until you create the file. If you
create the file, it will return &true; even if you then delete the file.
</para>

<para>
This function caches information about specific filenames, so you only
need to call <function>clearstatcache</function> if you are performing
multiple operations on the same filename and require the information
about that particular file to not be cached.

<para>
In PHP 4.0.3, <function>dirname</function> was fixed to be
POSIX-compliant. Essentially, this means that if there are no
slashes in <parameter>path</parameter> , a dot
('<literal>.</literal>') is returned, indicating the current
directory. Otherwise, the returned string is
<parameter>path</parameter> with any trailing
<literal>/component</literal> removed. Note that this means that
you will often get a slash or a dot back from
<function>dirname</function> in situations where the older
functionality would have given you the empty string.
</para>
</note>
<para>
<function>dirname</function> has changed its behaviour in PHP 4.3.0.

The <parameter>length</parameter> parameter became optional in PHP

<simpara>
<function>fopen</function> binds a named resource, specified
by <parameter>filename</parameter>, to a stream. If
<parameter>filename</parameter> is of the form "scheme://...",
it is assumed to be a URL and PHP will search for a protocol
handler (also known as a wrapper) for that scheme. If no
wrappers for that protocol are registered, PHP will emit
a notice to help you track potential problems in your script
and then continue as though <parameter>filename</parameter>
specifies a regular file.
</simpara>
<simpara>
If PHP has decided that <parameter>filename</parameter> specifies
a local file, then it will try to open a stream on that file.
The file must be accessible to PHP, so you need to ensure that
the file access permissions allow this access.
If you have enabled &safemode;,
or <link linkend="ini.open-basedir">open_basedir</link> further
restrictions may apply.
</simpara>
<simpara>
If PHP has decided that <parameter>filename</parameter> specifies
a registered protocol, and that protocol is registered as a
network URL, PHP will check to make sure that
<link linkend="ini.allow-url-fopen">allow_url_fopen</link> is
enabled. If it is switched off, PHP will emit a warning and
the fopen call will fail.
</simpara>
<note>
<simpara>
The list of supported protocols can be found in <xref linkend="wrappers"/>.
Some protocols (also referred to as <literal>wrappers</literal>) support
<literal>context</literal> and/or &php.ini; options.
Refer to the specific page for the protocol in use for a list of options
which can be set. (e.g. &php.ini; value
<literal>user_agent</literal> used by the <literal>http</literal> wrapper).

As of PHP 4.3.2, the default mode is set to binary for all
platforms that distinguish between binary and text mode. If you are
having problems with your scripts after upgrading, try using the
<literal>'t'</literal> flag as a workaround until you have made your
script more portable as mentioned below.

<para>
Different operating system families have different line-ending
conventions. When you write a text file and want to insert a line
break, you need to use the correct line-ending character(s) for your
operating system. Unix based systems use <literal>\n</literal> as the
line ending character, Windows based systems use <literal>\r\n</literal>
as the line ending characters and Macintosh based systems use
<literal>\r</literal> as the line ending character.
</para>
<para>
If you use the wrong line ending characters when writing your files, you
might find that other applications that open those files will "look
funny".
</para>
<para>
Windows offers a text-mode translation flag (<literal>'t'</literal>)
which will transparently translate <literal>\n</literal> to
<literal>\r\n</literal> when working with the file. In contrast, you
can also use <literal>'b'</literal> to force binary mode, which will not
translate your data. To use these flags, specify either
<literal>'b'</literal> or <literal>'t'</literal> as the last character
of the <parameter>mode</parameter> parameter.
</para>
<para>
The default translation mode depends on the SAPI and version of PHP that
you are using, so you are encouraged to always specify the appropriate
flag for portability reasons. You should use the <literal>'t'</literal>
mode if you are working with plain-text files and you use
<literal>\n</literal> to delimit your line endings in your script, but
expect your files to be readable with applications such as notepad. You
should use the <literal>'b'</literal> in all other cases.
</para>
<para>
If you do not specify the 'b' flag when working with binary files, you
may experience strange problems with your data, including broken image
files and strange problems with <literal>\r\n</literal> characters.
</para>
</note>
<note>
<para>
For portability, it is strongly recommended that you always
use the 'b' flag when opening files with <function>fopen</function>.
</para>
</note>
<note>
<para>
Again, for portability, it is also strongly recommended that
you re-write code that uses or relies upon the <literal>'t'</literal>
mode so that it uses the correct line endings and
<literal>'b'</literal> mode instead.
</para>

<para>
The optional third <parameter>use_include_path</parameter> parameter
can be set to '1' or &true; if you want to search for the file in

<simpara>
If the open fails, the function returns &false; and an error of
level <constant>E_WARNING</constant> is generated. You may use
<link linkend="language.operators.errorcontrol">@</link> to
suppress this warning.

</methodsynopsis>
<simpara>
<function>fopen</function> binds a named resource, specified
by <parameter>filename</parameter>, to a stream. If
<parameter>filename</parameter> is of the form "scheme://...",
it is assumed to be a URL and PHP will search for a protocol
handler (also known as a wrapper) for that scheme. If no
wrappers for that protocol are registered, PHP will emit
a notice to help you track potential problems in your script
and then continue as though <parameter>filename</parameter>
specifies a regular file.
</simpara>
<simpara>
If PHP has decided that <parameter>filename</parameter> specifies
a local file, then it will try to open a stream on that file.
The file must be accessible to PHP, so you need to ensure that
the file access permissions allow this access.
If you have enabled &safemode;,
or <link linkend="ini.open-basedir">open_basedir</link> further
restrictions may apply.
</simpara>
<simpara>
If PHP has decided that <parameter>filename</parameter> specifies
a registered protocol, and that protocol is registered as a
network URL, PHP will check to make sure that
<link linkend="ini.allow-url-fopen">allow_url_fopen</link> is
enabled. If it is switched off, PHP will emit a warning and
the fopen call will fail.
</simpara>
<note>
<simpara>
The list of supported protocols can be found in <xref linkend="wrappers"/>.
Some protocols (also referred to as <literal>wrappers</literal>) support
<literal>context</literal> and/or &php.ini; options.
Refer to the specific page for the protocol in use for a list of options
which can be set. (e.g. &php.ini; value
<literal>user_agent</literal> used by the <literal>http</literal> wrapper).

input according to the specified <parameter>format</parameter>, which is
described in the documentation for <function>sprintf</function>. If only

There are reserved words which must not be used as keys for

Values null, no and false results in "", yes and true results in "1".
Characters <literal>{}|&amp;~![()"</literal> must not be used anywhere in

<para>
The structure of the ini file is similar to that of

<link linkend="language.constants">Constants</link> may also be parsed
in the ini file so if you define a constant as an ini value before

<para>
<function>parse_ini_file</function> loads in the
ini file specified in <parameter>filename</parameter>,
and returns the settings in it in an associative array.
By setting the last <parameter>process_sections</parameter>
parameter to &true;, you get a multidimensional array, with
the section names and settings included. The default
for <parameter>process_sections</parameter> is &false;
</para>
<note>
<para>
This function has nothing to do with the
&php.ini; file. It is already processed,
the time you run your script. This function can be used to
read in your own application's configuration files.
</para>
</note>
<note>
<para>
If a value in the ini file contains any non-alphanumeric
characters it needs to be enclosed in double-quotes (").
</para>

Since PHP 4.2.1 this function is also affected by &safemode;
and <link linkend="ini.open-basedir">open_basedir</link>.

<para>
As of PHP 5.0 this function also handles new lines in values.
</para>
</note>
<note>
<simpara>
There are reserved words which must not be used as keys for
ini files. These include: null, yes, no, true, and false.
Values null, no and false results in "", yes and true results in "1".
Characters <literal>{}|&amp;~![()"</literal> must not be used anywhere in
the key and have a special meaning in the value.

created to avoid a race condition where the file might appear in the

the script gets around to creating the file. Note, that you need
to remove the file in case you need it no more, it is not done

Avoid using this function in multithreaded webservers. It is better to
change the file permissions with <function>chmod</function> after
creating the file. Using <function>umask</function> can lead to
unexpected behavior of concurrently running scripts and the webserver
itself because they all use the same umask.
