The glob(path . '/*'); function glob(path . '/*'); does not notice files that have a dot at the beginning of the name. Why?

    Files with a dot in the beginning are "hidden". The glob function does not handle them by default.

    use this template:

     $files = glob($path . '/{,.}*', GLOB_BRACE);
    • Theoretically, such a pattern: / /{,.}*.php should find all php files? - mus
    • In theory, yes. Let me ask you one question, why do you need hidden .php scripts? I'm really curious - rjhdby
    • need to process them with a script, change the encoding. I work in Bitrix , there are a lot of such files. - mus
    • When working with Bitrix, you can use CFileMan::GetDirList - Dmitry
