$file, string $patch, string $dest): bool
Patches a file with a binary
patch and stores the result in a file dest.
This function accepts patches created both via xdiff_file_bdiff()
or xdiff_file_rabdiff() functions or their string counterparts.
Starting with version 1.5.0 this function is an alias of xdiff_file_bpatch().
fileThe original file.
patchThe binary patch file.
destPath of the resulting file.
Returns true on success or false on failure.
Example #1 xdiff_file_patch_binary() example
The following code applies binary diff to a file.
<?php
$old_version = 'archive-1.0.tgz';
$patch = 'archive.bpatch';
$result = xdiff_file_patch_binary($old_version, $patch, 'archive-1.1.tgz');
if ($result) {
echo "File patched";
} else {
echo "File couldn't be patched";
}
?>
Note:
Both files (
fileandpatch) will be loaded into memory so ensure that your memory_limit is set high enough.
