Try this to know behavior:

<?php
function resource_test($resource, $name) {
    echo 
        '[' . $name. ']',
        PHP_EOL,
        '(bool)$resource => ',
        $resource ? 'TRUE' : 'FALSE',
        PHP_EOL,
        'get_resource_type($resource) => ',
        get_resource_type($resource) ?: 'FALSE',
        PHP_EOL,
        'is_resoruce($resource) => ',
        is_resource($resource) ? 'TRUE' : 'FALSE',
        PHP_EOL,
        PHP_EOL
    ;
}
 
$resource = tmpfile();
resource_test($resource, 'Check Valid Resource');
 
fclose($resource);
resource_test($resource, 'Check Released Resource');
 
$resource = null;
resource_test($resource, 'Check NULL');
?>

It will be shown as...

[Check Valid Resource]
(bool)$resource => TRUE
get_resource_type($resource) => stream
is_resoruce($resource) => TRUE

[Check Released Resource]
(bool)$resource => TRUE
get_resource_type($resource) => Unknown
is_resoruce($resource) => FALSE

[Check NULL]
(bool)$resource => FALSE
get_resource_type($resource) => FALSE
Warning:  get_resource_type() expects parameter 1 to be resource, null given in ... on line 10
is_resoruce($resource) => FALSE

In PHP5 (on Linux), the above example identifies the "file" handler as a 'stream', not 'file'.

This can be particularly worrisome if you're trying to determine the type of stream using this function.

The alternative is to use <?php stream_get_meta_data() ?>, which returns an array containing "stream_type (string) - a label describing the underlying implementation of the stream."

Furthermore, this function returns 'stream' on php 4.3 on windows & linux.
You if you want to differentiate between a file resource and other stream resources, as stated before stream_get_meta_data() gives you an array which, on my system, contains the following elements which might suggest a file handle:
[wrapper_type] => plainfile
[stream_type] => STDIO

However I've only compared this to a stream from a url, so I include this only as a suggestion.

This function will generate an error and return NULL instead FALSE in the next example:

<?php

$var = 3;
var_dump(get_resource_type($var));

?>
