◆ get_content()

file_system::get_content ( stored_file $file)

Return values
resourcefile handle

$type = stored_file::FILE_HANDLE_FOPEN )
staticprotected

Return a file handle for the specified path.

This abstraction should be used when overriding get_content_file_handle in a new file system.

Parameters
string$pathThe path to the file. This shoudl be any type of path that fopen and gzopen accept.
