(PECL eio >= 0.0.1dev)

eio_rename — Change the name or location of a file.

### Description

resource eio_rename ( string `$path` , string `$new_path` [, int `$pri` = EIO_PRI_DEFAULT [, callable `$callback` = NULL [, mixed `$data` = NULL ]]] )

eio_rename() renames or moves a file to new location.

### Parameters

`path`

  Source path

`new_path`

  Target path

`pri`

  The request priority: `EIO_PRI_DEFAULT`, `EIO_PRI_MIN`, `EIO_PRI_MAX`, or `NULL`. If `NULL` passed, `pri` internally is set to `EIO_PRI_DEFAULT`.

`callback`

  `callback` function is called when the request is done. It should match the following prototype:

  `void callback(mixed $data, int $result[, resource $req]);`
  `data`

    is custom data passed to the request.

  `result`

    request-specific result value; basically, the value returned by corresponding system call.

  `req`

    is optional request resource which can be used with functions like eio_get_last_error()

`data`

  Arbitrary variable passed to `callback`.

### Return Values

eio_rename() returns request resource on success or `FALSE` on error.

### Examples

Example #1 eio_rename() example

`<?php
$filename = dirname(__FILE__)."/eio-temp-file.dat";
touch($filename);
$new_filename = dirname(__FILE__)."/eio-temp-file-new.dat";
function my_rename_cb($data, $result) {
global $filename, $new_filename;
if ($result == 0 && !file_exists($filename) && file_exists($new_filename)) {
@unlink($new_filename);
echo "eio_rename_ok";
} else {
@unlink($filename);
}
}
eio_rename($filename, $new_filename, EIO_PRI_DEFAULT, "my_rename_cb", $filename);
eio_event_loop();
?>`

The above example will output something similar to:

    eio_rename_ok
