REALPATH(3) 1 REALPATH(3) realpath - Returns canonicalized absolute pathname SYNOPSIS
string realpath (string $path) DESCRIPTION
realpath(3) expands all symbolic links and resolves references to '/./', '/../' and extra '/' characters in the input $path and returns the canonicalized absolute pathname. PARAMETERS
o $path - The path being checked. Note Whilst a path must be supplied, the value can be blank or NULL In these cases, the value is interpreted as the current directory. RETURN VALUES
Returns the canonicalized absolute pathname on success. The resulting path will have no symbolic link, '/./' or '/../' components. realpath(3) returns FALSE on failure, e.g. if the file does not exist. Note The running script must have executable permissions on all directories in the hierarchy, otherwise realpath(3) will return FALSE. Note Because PHP's integer type is signed and many platforms use 32bit integers, some filesystem functions may return unexpected results for files which are larger than 2GB. CHANGELOG
