I decided to run a test to see if it was true that this function, despite it's entirely different purpose, could be used as a faster more efficient file_exists.  I even tested against a scenario where the current path being sought was not part any include path currently set on the system, and both functions performed as if they were intended to provide whether a file existed or not.  Here is the test code (its a bit of a mess, but it gets the job done):



<?php

echo "Current Include Path: " . get_include_path() . "<br /><br />\n\n";

$st = microtime(true);

$data = file_exists('Templates/Styles/main.css');

$et = microtime(true);

var_dump($data);

echo " <strong>FROM</strong> file_exists('Templates/Styles/main.css')<br />\n";

echo "Completed in : " . ($et - $st) . " seconds<br />\n";

$st = microtime(true);

$data = stream_resolve_include_path('Templates/Styles/main.css');

$et = microtime(true);

var_dump($data);

echo " <strong>FROM</strong> stream_resolve_include_path('Templates/Styles/main.css')<br />\n";

echo "Completed in : " . ($et - $st) . " seconds<br />\n";

$st = microtime(true);

$data = file_exists('Templates/NotADir/NoFileHere.php');

$et = microtime(true);

var_dump($data);

echo " <strong>FROM</strong> file_exists('Templates/NotADir/NoFileHere.php')<br />\n";

echo "Completed in : " . ($et - $st) . " seconds<br />\n";

$st = microtime(true);

$data = stream_resolve_include_path('Templates/NotADir/NoFileHere.php');

$et = microtime(true);

var_dump($data);

echo " <strong>FROM</strong> stream_resolve_include_path('Templates/NotADir/NoFileHere.php')<br />\n";

echo "Completed in : " . ($et - $st) . " seconds<br />\n";

?>



On my server I got the following results:



Current Include Path: .:<!--REMOVED-->/lib/php:<!--REMOVED-->/lib/php



bool(true) FROM file_exists('Templates/Styles/main.css')

Completed in : 4.1E-5 seconds

string(51) "<!--REMOVED-->/Templates/Styles/main.css" FROM stream_resolve_include_path('Templates/Styles/main.css')

Completed in : 2.19345092773E-5 seconds

bool(false) FROM file_exists('Templates/NotADir/NoFileHere.php')

Completed in : 4.05311584473E-6 seconds

bool(false) FROM stream_resolve_include_path('Templates/NotADir/NoFileHere.php')

Completed in : 2.19345092773E-5 seconds



Not only does this show that this is a great replacement for file_exists, it also performs twice as fast.  I ran this a few times and under most tests stream_resolve_include_path ranged from 2.1 to 2.8 while file_exists ranged from 4.0 to 5.8 so stream_resolve tended to have much more consistent performance over time as well.

This seems to be a great alternative to file_exists.



if( file_exists(__DIR__.'/som-file.php') )



Goes way slower than:



if( stream_resolve_inlcude_path(__DIR__.'/som-file.php') !== false)

It really behaves like `include` and will only resolve the filename against the include-path, if the path is relative. It makes not much sense to resolve already absolute pathnames anyway.
