    Beschreibung

    php_strip_whitespace(string$filename): string

    Returns the PHP source code in filename with PHP comments and whitespace removed. This may be useful for determining the amount of actual code in your scripts compared with the amount of comments. This is similar to using php -w from the commandline.

    Parameter-Liste

    filename

    Path to the PHP file.

    Rückgabewerte

    The stripped source code will be returned on success, or an empty string on failure.

    Hinweis:

    This function respects the value of the short_open_tag ini directive.

    Beispiele

    Beispiel #1 php_strip_whitespace() example

    <?php
    // PHP comment here



    echo php_strip_whitespace(__FILE__);
    // Newlines are considered whitespace, and are removed too:
    do_nothing();
    ?>

    Das oben gezeigte Beispiel erzeugt folgende Ausgabe:

    <?php echo php_strip_whitespace(__FILE__); do_nothing(); ?>

    Notice the PHP comments are gone, as are the whitespace and newline after the first echo statement.
