I once wrote an enhancement for PHP's ftp routines that allowed ftping
directly to a string (or directly from a string, I can't remember now),
in a manner similar to what PHP's file access routines could do with a
file. It was completely unnecessary, because PHP's file access routines
could work with URLs.
It was really a problem with the documentation--at the time, PHP's FTP
documentation did not refer to the file access documentation for people
needing those features. So I added a note to the PHP documentation
comment area (PHP's web documentation is the only programming language
documentation for which I prefer the on-line version to printed version)
noting what I had done and why it was unnecessary.
it, would have been nil; the functionality was completely unnecessary.
But because of that comment I have actually received (and been paid for)
a review job for the FTP section of a PHP book :*)
(note follow-ups)
