1. The filesize() function returns an incorrect value.
When using curl to download a page locally, you need to read the contents of the downloaded temporary file tmpHtml.txt into a buffer. Since I use fread() to read, I need to pass in the size to be read, so I first use filesize(‘./tmpHtml.txt’) to get the temporary file size. The weird thing is that the size of the temporary file obtained is incorrect. I set a breakpoint to debug and manually search for the file on the hard disk after calling filesize(). The file size is different from the result obtained by filesize().
Search filesize on php.net, and you can see this sentence in the function description: Note: The results of this function will be cached. See clearstatcache() for more details.
Check clearstatcache() again, and I found the reason:
PHP will cache the return information of these (function tables are provided for query) functions to provide faster performance. In some cases, however, you may want to clear cached information. For example, if you check the same file multiple times in a script and the file is in danger of being deleted or modified during the execution of the script, you need to clear the file status cache. In this case, you can use the clearstatcache() function to clear the file information cached by PHP.
2. In a UTF-8 encoded PHP script, how to match Chinese when pattern matching GBK encoded Chinese web content.
In yesterday's development, we needed to match content containing the GBK encoded string 'Apple', so we wrote the following code:
Copy the code The code is as follows:
$pat = '//';
$pat = iconv('UTF-8', 'GB2312', $pat);
$ret = preg_match_all($pat, $contents, $matches);
Copy the code The code is as follows:
$pat = '//' ;
$contenst = iconv('GB2312', 'UTF-8', $contents);
$ret = preg_match_all($pat, $contents, $matches);
The above introduces the three problems encountered when debugging a PHP program that need to be closed when encountering a problem, including the content that needs to be closed when encountering a problem. I hope it will be helpful to friends who are interested in PHP tutorials.
