function file_load_multiple

Loads file objects from the database.

@todo Remove $conditions in Drupal 8.

Parameters

$fids: An array of file IDs.

$conditions: (deprecated) An associative array of conditions on the {file_managed} table, where the keys are the database fields and the values are the values those fields must have. Instead, it is preferable to use EntityFieldQuery to retrieve a list of entity IDs loadable by this function.

Return value

An array of file objects, indexed by fid.
