Bug description:file_get_contents() no longer returns false on 4xx responses
Description:
------------
In PHP 5.3, file_get_contents() returns false on 4xx responses. In PHP 5.4,
file_get_contents() is returning the actual response body, rather than
false.
Test script:
---------------
<?php
$response =
file_get_contents('http://us3.php.net/manual/en/function.foobar.php');
var_dump($http_response_header);
var_dump($response);
Expected result:
----------------
With warnings turned on, this is what I get in PHP 5.3 and what I expect to
see
in PHP 5.4:
PHP Warning:
file_get_contents(http://us3.php.net/manual/en/function.foobar.php): failed
