fstat - Gets information about a file using an open file pointer
Manual
fstat(
resource$stream ): array|false
Gathers the statistics of the file opened by the file pointer stream. This function is similar to the stat function except that it operates on an open file pointer instead of a filename.
Parameters
- stream
-
A file system pointer resource that is typically created using fopen.
Return Values
Returns an array with the statistics of the file; the format of the array is described in detail on the stat manual page. Returns 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.
