PHP Editor Review - Pear Manual Package fileformats file-fstab saving

Saving your changes

After modifying a fstab file, you will want to save your changes. The save() function does this.

Warning

Comments from the loaded file are not preserved when saving, and whitespace may change. This has no effect on the functionality of the fstab file, but you may lose helpful comments.

Example 37-1. Save to the same file

This will save your changes back to the file you loaded, overwriting the old file.

require_once 'File/Fstab.php';
$fstab =& new File_Fstab();
$floppy =& new File_Fstab_Entry();
$floppy->fsType = 'vfat';
$floppy->device = '/dev/fd0';
$floppy->mountPoint = '/floppy';
$fstab->addEntry($floppy);
$res = $fstab->save();
if (PEAR::isError($res)) {
    die($res->getMessage());
}

Example 37-2. Save to a different file

This will save your changes to a different file than the one you originally loaded.

require_once 'File/Fstab.php';
$fstab =& new File_Fstab();
$floppy =& new File_Fstab_Entry();
$floppy->fsType = 'vfat';
$floppy->device = '/dev/fd0';
$floppy->mountPoint = '/floppy';
$fstab->addEntry($floppy);
$res = $fstab->save('/tmp/fstab.new');
if (PEAR::isError($res)) {
    die($res->getMessage());
}
