Exemplo #1 xdiff_file_patch() example
The following code applies unified diff to a file.
<?php
$old_version = 'my_script-1.0.php';
$patch = 'my_script.patch';
$errors = xdiff_file_patch($old_version, $patch, 'my_script-1.1.php');
if (is_string($errors)) {
echo "Rejects:\n";
echo $errors;
}
?>Exemplo #2 Patch reversing example
The following code reverses a patch.
<?php
$new_version = 'my_script-1.1.php';
$patch = 'my_script.patch';
$errors = xdiff_file_patch($new_version, $patch, 'my_script-1.0.php', XDIFF_PATCH_REVERSE);
if (is_string($errors)) {
echo "Rejects:\n";
echo $errors;
}
?>
