in php4ts.dll (product version 4.3.1, file version 4.3.1.1):

Constant GLOB_ONLYDIR is absent (void) in file php4ts.dll.
Constant GLOB_ONLYDIR is unusable in function glob().
This constant (GLOB_ONLYDIR) is present in sources.

Error message in HTML code from PHP engine is:

Notice: Use of undefined constant GLOB_ONLYDIR - assumed 'GLOB_ONLYDIR' in C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Apache2\htdocs\dev\lib.php on line 58

Warning: glob() expects parameter 2 to be long, string given in C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Apache2\htdocs\dev\lib.php on line 58

Source PHP code for reproduce error:
$filesarray = glob("*", GLOB_ONLYDIR);

It's just not avaialable under windows then.

Is that the only constant that isn't defined (I need to know before making a note of this in the docs)?  Assigning to myself...
 [2003-04-06 22:58 UTC] ship at omskreg dot ru 
Other glob() constants (GLOB_MARK, GLOB_NOSORT, GLOB_NOCHECK, GLOB_NOESCAPE, GLOB_BRACE) are present in content of file php4ts.dll as text fragments. Only constant GLOB_ONLYDIR (this constant is described in documentation) is not present in content of file php4ts.dll, and therefore this constant cannot be used in PHP code.

Whether function glob() will work if to specify numerical value instead of constant GLOB_ONLYDIR as text, I do not know - am I did not try to make.

This bug has been fixed in CVS.

In case this was a PHP problem, snapshots of the sources are packaged
every three hours; this change will be in the next snapshot. You can
grab the snapshot at http://snaps.php.net/.
 
In case this was a documentation problem, the fix will show up soon at
http://www.php.net/manual/.

In case this was a PHP.net website problem, the change will show
up on the PHP.net site and on the mirror sites in short time.
 
Thank you for the report, and for helping us make PHP better.

Using PHP 4.3.2 on Windows, GLOB_ONLYDIR still does not work but returns 

Warning: glob() expects parameter 2 to be long, string given in c:\program files\apache\htdocs\dir.php on line 9

Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in c:\program files\apache\htdocs\dir.php on line 9

As described above I can't find GLOB_ONLYDIR in php4ts.dll but I can find the other glob flags (like GLOB_NOESCAPE, GLOB_NOCHECK..)
The glob manual page doesn't note anything about GLOB_ONLYDIR not beeing useable as well.
Cheers..

I am sorry, I just noticed bug #24482 (which seems quite similar to this one, if not even a dup) which also mentiones it has been fixed in CVS and got the new dir.c version, rebuild it and now it works well.
Sorry again, next time I'll be more careful. And thanks for PHP :)
Cheers..
