stream_get_meta_data

Description

Returns information about an existing stream. The stream can be any stream created by fopen(), fsockopen() and pfsockopen(). The result array contains the following items:

• timed_out (bool) - TRUE if the stream timed out while waiting for data on the last call to fread() or fgets().

• blocked (bool) - TRUE if the stream is in blocking IO mode. See stream_set_blocking().

• eof (bool) - TRUE if the stream has reached end-of-file. Note that for socket streams this member can be TRUE even when unread_bytes is non-zero. To determine if there is more data to be read, use feof() instead of reading this item.

• unread_bytes (int) - the number of bytes currently contained in the PHP's own internal buffer.

  Замечание: You shouldn't use this value in a script.

The following items were added in PHP 4.3:

• stream_type (string) - a label describing the underlying implementation of the stream.

• wrapper_type (string) - a label describing the protocol wrapper implementation layered over the stream. See Прил. L for more information about wrappers.

• wrapper_data (mixed) - wrapper specific data attached to this stream. See Прил. L for more information about wrappers and their wrapper data.

• filters (array) - and array containing the names of any filters that have been stacked onto this stream. Documentation on filters can be found in the Filters appendix.

The following items were added in PHP 5.0:

• mode (string) - the mode (or permissions) of the URI associated with this stream.

• seakable (bool) - whether the current stream can be seeked in.

• uri (string) - the URI/filename associated with this stream.
