READGZFILE(3) 1 READGZFILE(3)
readgzfile - Output a gz-file
SYNOPSIS
int readgzfile (string $filename, [int $use_include_path])
DESCRIPTION
Reads a file, decompresses it and writes it to standard output.
readgzfile(3) can be used to read a file which is not in gzip format; in this case readgzfile(3) will directly read from the file without
decompression.
PARAMETERS
o $filename
- The file name. This file will be opened from the filesystem and its contents written to standard output.
o $use_include_path
- You can set this optional parameter to 1, if you want to search for the file in the include_path too.
RETURN VALUES
Returns the number of (uncompressed) bytes read from the file. If an error occurs, FALSE is returned and unless the function was called as
@readgzfile, an error message is printed.
