php_strip_whitespace

(PHP 5)

php_strip_whitespace — Return source with stripped comments and whitespace

Descrizione

string php_strip_whitespace ( string $filename )

Returns the PHP source code in filename with PHP comments and whitespace removed. This may be useful for determining the amount of actual code in your scripts compared with the amount of comments. This is similar to using php -w from the commandline.

Elenco dei parametri

filename: Path to the PHP file.

Valori restituiti

The stripped source code will be returned on success, or an empty string on failure.

Nota:
This function works as described as of PHP 5.0.1. Before this it would only return an empty string. For more information on this bug and its prior behavior, see bug report » #29606.
