getmyuid — Gets PHP script owner's UID
This function has no parameters.
Returns the user ID of the current script, or false
on error.
Note that this function really does what the description says, it returns the numeric user id of the user who *owns the file* containing the current script not the effective user id of user *running* the current script. Most applications will want the latter which is provided by posix_getuid().
warning, at least 7.4-8.1 returns the owner of the initial entrypoint file rather the currently executing file,
meaning, if you have a.php owned by 1 containing
<?php var_dump(getmyuid());require_once("b.php"); ?>
and b.php owned by 2 containing
<?php var_dump(getmyuid());require_once("a.php"); ?>
running "php a.php" will get you int(1) int(1), and running "php b.php" will get you int(2) int(2), you won't get "int(1) int(2)"
