great! :-)

btw: your response time is really fast!

btw^2: the optional 3rd parameter (int actime) is not mentioned in the
documentation. That should also be fixed...

Ok, really fixed in CVS

ok, I downloaded the latest snapshot. It is *partly* fixed, but now,
there's another BUG!

here the snippet:

PHP_FUNCTION(touch)
{
        pval **filename, **filetime, **fileatime;
        int ret;
        struct stat sb;
        FILE *file;
        struct utimbuf newtimebuf;
        struct utimbuf *newtime = NULL;
        int ac = ZEND_NUM_ARGS();

        if (ac == 1 && zend_get_parameters_ex(1, &filename) != FAILURE) {
#ifndef HAVE_UTIME_NULL
                newtime->modtime = newtime->actime = time(NULL);
#endif
        } else if (ac == 2 && zend_get_parameters_ex(2, &filename, &filetime)
!= FAILURE) {
                newtime = &newtimebuf;
                convert_to_long_ex(filetime);
                newtime->actime = time(NULL);
                newtime->modtime = newtime->actime = Z_LVAL_PP(filetime);
        } else if (ac == 3 && zend_get_parameters_ex(3, &filename, &filetime,
&fileatime) != FAILURE) {
                newtime = &newtimebuf;
                convert_to_long_ex(fileatime);
                convert_to_long_ex(filetime);
                newtime->actime = Z_LVAL_PP(fileatime);
                newtime->modtime = Z_LVAL_PP(filetime);
        } else {
                WRONG_PARAM_COUNT;
        }
[..]

ok, lets see, what it do:

> struct utimbuf *newtime = NULL;

great! ;-)

with 2 or 3 parameters, the code do this:

> newtime = &newtimebuf;

great! ;-)

but with 1 parameter:

> #ifndef HAVE_UTIME_NULL
>   newtime->modtime = newtime->actime = >time(NULL);
> #endif

eh, if HAVE_UTIME_NULL is *not* defined, 'newtime' is stil NULL. hmmm,
I think, it should be initialized with 'newtime = &newtimebuf;',
shouldn't it? NULL->modtime => SEGV ;-)

This bug has been fixed in CVS. You can grab a snapshot of the
CVS version at http://snaps.php.net/. In case this was a documentation 
problem, the fix will show up soon at http://www.php.net/manual/. 
Thank you for the report, and for helping us make PHP better.

In PHP 4.2.0 the touch() function seems to be broken!
When you use touch($filename) the mtime is a random value... if you use
touch($filename,time()), anything works fine.

I checked the source and I think, I found the BUG!

[php-4.2.0/ext/standard/filestat.c # PHP_FUNCTION(touch)]

[..]
        struct utimbuf newtimebuf;
        struct utimbuf *newtime = &newtimebuf;
        int ac = ZEND_NUM_ARGS();

        if (ac == 1 && zend_get_parameters_ex(1, &filename) != FAILURE)
{
#ifndef HAVE_UTIME_NULL
                newtime->modtime = newtime->actime = time(NULL);
#endif
        } else if (ac == 2 && zend_get_parameters_ex(2, &filename,
&filetime) != FAILURE) {

[..]

have a look at the part with HAVE_UTIME_NULL. if HAVE_UTIME_NULL is
*not* defined, it will be initialized with time(NULL). But if it is
defined, newtime->modtime and newtime->actime will be
*uninitialized*!!! There's no code to initialize both values with
something like 0 or NULL. The struct newtime is on the stack and has
random content!

HAVE_UTIME_NULL seems to be defined on my system and so touch() sets
random values for modtime and actime.
