[PATCH 3/5] gitweb: Always use three argument form of open

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



In most cases (except insert_file() subroutine) we used old two argument
form of 'open' to open files for reading.  This can cause subtle bugs when
$projectroot or $projects_list file starts with mode characters ('>', '<',
'+<', '|', etc.) or with leading whitespace; and also when $projects_list
file or $mimetypes_file or ctags files end with trailing whitespace or '|'.

Additionally it is also more clear to explicitly state that we open those
files for reading.

Perl::Critic::Policy::InputOutput::ProhibitTwoArgOpen

  Write open $fh, q{<}, $filename; instead of open $fh, "<$filename";.

  The three-argument form of open (introduced in Perl 5.6) prevents subtle
  bugs that occur when the filename starts with funny characters like
  '>' or '<'.  It's also more explicitly clear to define the input mode of
  the file, and not to e.g. use open( $fh, 'foo.txt' );

See also Damian Conway's book "Perl Best Practices",
chapter "10.4. Opening Cleanly" (Use either the 'IO::File' module
or the three-argument form of 'open'.)


This patch _textually_ depends on the previous patch (no bareword
filehandles), even if _conceptually_ they are quite independent.
