wamp - Emulate CHMOD in Windows PHP development -
i'm developing file management wares on windows dev box. dreading day when start testing in remote lamp environment; bouncing head off thousand potential chmod issues. ‡
i know php's read/write file/dir permission checks ignored on windows. however, i'd emulate it. has thought of doing before? have in mind cooking following:
- route permission-related functions via proxy functions pass through default functions on *nix -- emulate chmod permission checks on windows.
- keep record of "virtual" permissions set these functions, against permission-related file , directory transactions cleared.
- all these virtual permissions have no impact on actual windows filesystem. setup exist merely emulate happens when we're on *nix.
does make sense? or wasting time idea? setup make possible "shuffle" file permissions random, prepping litmus buffet of test cases.
(n.b. i'm not looking installing *nix vm on dev laptop @ time. it'd fine way filesystem related testing locally. not tackling case.)
‡ just it's clear. not alien file permissions. issue on developing software on platform doesn't give expected feedback when code executed.
