求解释这个函数是什么意思？该如何处理

function uc_fopen($url, $limit = 0, $post = '', $cookie = '', $bysocket = FALSE, $ip = '', $timeout = 15, $block = TRUE) {

	$return = '';

	!isset($matches['port']) && $matches['port'] = '';

	$host = $matches['host'];

	$path = $matches['path'] ? $matches['path'].($matches['query'] ? '?'.$matches['query'] : '') : '/';

	$port = !empty($matches['port']) ? $matches['port'] : 80;

	if($post) {

		$out = "POST $path HTTP/1.0\r\n";

		$out .= "Accept: */*\r\n";

	}
