Author #37660 [NEW]: Note required on glob() doc page
iain at iaindooley dot com

2006-05-31, 9:57 pm

From: iain at iaindooley dot com
Operating system: all
PHP version: Irrelevant
PHP Bug Type: Documentation problem
Bug description: Note required on glob() doc page

Description:
------------
http://au2.php.net/glob

on the manual page for glob(), it says that:

Returns an array containing the matched files/directories or FALSE on
error

It would be useful to have a note here that if no files match, it returns
an empty array rather than FALSE.

When I first read this, my interpretation was that no matching files would
constitute an error.
