xattr_set — Set an extended attribute

Description

xattr_set ( string $filename , string $name , string $value [, int $flags = 0 ] ) : bool

This function sets the value of an extended attribute of a file.

Extended attributes have two different namespaces: user and root. The user namespace is available to all users, while the root namespace is available only to users with root privileges. xattr operates on the user namespace by default, but this can be changed with the flags parameter.
