fstat
(PHP 4 )
fstat -- Gets information about a file using an open file
pointer
Description
array fstat ( resource handle)
Gathers the statistics of the file opened by the file pointer
handle. This function is similar to the stat() function
except that it operates on an open file pointer instead
of a filename.
Returns an array with the statistics of the file; the format
of the array is described in detail on the stat() manual
page.
Example 1. fstat() example
<?php
// open a file
$fp = fopen("/etc/passwd", "r");
// gather statistics
$fstat = fstat($fp);
// close the file
fclose($fp);
// print only the associative part
print_r(array_slice($fstat, 13));
?>
this will output :
Array
(
[dev] => 771
[ino] => 488704
[mode] => 33188
[nlink] => 1
[uid] => 0
[gid] => 0
[rdev] => 0
[size] => 1114
[atime] => 1061067181
[mtime] => 1056136526
[ctime] => 1056136526
[blksize] => 4096
[blocks] => 8
)
Note: The results of this function are cached. See clearstatcache()
for more details.
Note: This function will not work on remote files as the
file to be examined must be accessible via the servers filesystem.
