Hi,

I found another strange behaviour in PHP5, it occurred only on my
Windows machine using the Apache SAPI (tried it on Debian with PHP-CGI
and it worked fine).

The following code:

<?php
class Foo
{
public function __construct()
{
echo realpath('./') . "\n";
}

public function __destruct()
{
echo realpath('./') . "\n";
}
}

$foo = new Foo();
?>

returns:

c:\www\projects\pat\patportal\examples
c:\programme\apache group\Apache

Best regards,

Stephan

Hi Stephan,

this is by design and was discussed before, please check the archives. And
should happen on Linux with mod_php, too.

I found similar weirdness.  When using the CGI, on my Windows 2000 machine
when doing realpath('.') I get the path to the document root, as expected.
But when doing the same thing on my Windows XP Pro machine, it returns the
path to my PHP installation.
