Bug #32924 file included with "auto_prepend_file" can be called with require|include_once()
Submitted: 2005-05-03 11:35 UTC Modified: 2005-05-09 12:00 UTC
From: stas at zend dot com Assigned: stas (profile)
Status: Closed Package: *General Issues
PHP Version: 5.0.4 OS:
Private report: No CVE-ID: None

Description:
------------
At least starting from 4.3.x, when file is included via include(), it is added to the list of included files, so that the code:
<? include('foo'); include_once('foo'); ?>
woould include 'foo' only once.

However, if you put foo in auto_prepend_file and then do <? include_once('foo'); ?> - 'foo' would be included twice.

I see this behaviour as inconsistent and needing to be fixed, though there can be some BC issues with that. 

Reproduce code:
---------------
1. 
<? include('foo'); include_once('foo'); ?>
foo:
<? echo "Whatever..."; ?>

2.
auto_prepend_file=foo
<? include_once('foo'); ?>

Expected result:
----------------
"Whatever..." once in both cases

Actual result:
--------------
"Whatever..."  once in the first case, twice in the second.

Fixed for 5HEAD.

IMO, the following SHOULD include the file twice:
<? include('foo'); include_once('foo'); ?>

normal includes should not get their file names put into the included_files list... only ones that are included with include_once/require_once. So I think you fixed the bug in the wrong way here.

It's exactly same now how it works in PHP4 too.

I don't think there's any problem with the fix - since include() is not supposed to check included files, this fix does not affect include() in any way.
