Description: ------------ It's reproducible on all php >= 7 versions (including 7.4-rc) I probably am missing something, but I cannot find it documented anywhere, hence the behaviour surprises me. Test script: --------------- <?php $files = iterator_to_array(new DirectoryIterator(__DIR__)); var_dump($files[0]->getRealPath()); foreach (new DirectoryIterator(__DIR__) as $f) { var_dump($f->getRealPath()); break; } Expected result: ---------------- string(4) "/app" string(4) "/app" Actual result: -------------- bool(false) string(4) "/app"
