Code Examples

chgrp( string$filename, string|int$group ): bool

Parameters

filename

Path to the file.

group

A group name or number.

Return Values

Returns true on success or false on failure.

Notes

Note:

This function will not work on remote files as the file to be examined must be accessible via the server's filesystem.

Note:

On Windows, this function fails silently when applied on a regular file.
