stat

stat

(PHP 3, PHP 4 , PHP 5)

stat -- Gives information about a file

Description

array stat ( string filename)

Gathers the statistics of the file named by filename. If filename is a symbolic link, statistics are from the file itself, not the symlink. lstat() is identical to stat() except it would instead be based off the symlinks status.

In case of error, stat() returns FALSE. It also will throw a warning.

Returns an array with the statistics of the file with the following elements. This array is zero-based. In addition to returning these attributes in a numeric array, they can be accessed with associative indices, as noted next to each parameter; this is available since PHP 4.0.6:

Таблица 1. stat() and fstat() result format

0 dev device number
1 ino inode number
2 mode inode protection mode
3 nlink number of links

5 gid groupid of owner
6 rdev device type, if inode device *
7 size size in bytes

9 mtime time of last modification (Unix timestamp)
10 ctime time of last change (Unix timestamp)
11 blksize blocksize of filesystem IO *
12 blocks number of blocks allocated
* - only valid on systems supporting the st_blksize type--other systems (i.e. Windows) return -1.
