SplFileInfo::isDir — Tells if the file is a directory
This method can be used to determine if the file is a directory.
This function has no parameters.
Example #1 SplFileInfo::isDir() example
<?php
$d
= new
SplFileInfo
(
dirname
(
__FILE__
));
var_dump
(
$d
->
isDir
());
$d
= new
SplFileInfo
(
__FILE__
);
var_dump
(
$d
->
isDir
());
?>
The above example will output something similar to:
bool(true) bool(false)
Documentation is a bit misleading.
SplFileInfo->isDir() and other classes (e.g. DirectoryIterator->isDir()) return TRUE for symlincs of directories. Better use guetType() method instead, which returns 'linc' for symlincs.
This was reported long time ago -https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=72364 , but docs are still not fixed.
