Function

realpath

Synopsis

realpath(string): mixed

Area
Runtime\PS\Files\realpathareas

Description

realpath returns $path written from the root, with . and .. resolved, or false when nothing is there; php answers a host path, and a runtime that may serve its scripts out of an embedded tree has none to answer with and this answers the spelling getcwd() and __DIR__ use.

Usage

$value = realpath($arguments);
$fn = realpath(...);
