 Currently, #2 and #3 are already supported by [[http://php.net/manual/en/streamwrapper.url-stat.php|streamWrapper::url_stat()]]. With this accomplished, frameworks such as [[http://vfs.bovigo.org/|vfsStream]] can support testability of symlinking correctly. Currently, #2 and #3 are already supported by [[http://php.net/manual/en/streamwrapper.url-stat.php|streamWrapper::url_stat()]].

 +  * When url_readlink() returns a string, it will be used as readlink()'s return value.
 +  * When url_readlink() returns FALSE, readlink() quietly returns FALSE
 +  * For all other return values of url_readlink(), a warning is raised and readlink() returns FALSE
 +  * When url_readlink() is not implemented, a warning is raised an readlink() returns FALSE.

 +==== Limitations ====
 +
 +It will not be possible to create links between two different stream wrappers like this: 
 +
 +<PHP>
 +symlink('foo://some/resource', 'bar://another/resource'); // will yield a PHP_WARNING and return false
 </PHP> </PHP>
