ID: 29726 User updated by: lists at cyberlot dot net Reported By: lists at cyberlot dot net Status: Open Bug Type: Sockets related Operating System: Fedora Core 2 PHP Version: 5.0.1 New Comment:
This problem only exists with fread, fget which multiple examples in the docs use and the docs list as "See Also" functions. However by using stream_socket_recvfrom this problem was resovled.. This function is not at this time referenced in the manual other in the functions list so might easily overlooked as I did. One possible issue I do see, stream_socket_recvfrom looks to work because it pulls everything in the buffer up to X bytes regardless of any EOL character. On a slow single line entry settup this shouldn't be a problem and everything should work fine.. Under high load when data ends up being buffered at both sides this function would return only partial "blocks" of what a user might expect and the user would need to program his own internal buffering that checks for EOL. This should be covered in more detail in the online manual.

The problem socket_read supports PHP_NORMAL_READ which allows it to see flashes \0 as EOL... This is not possible when using streams to create a socket server as fget does not see \0 as EOL Expected result: ---------------- Expect fgets to return data at \0 Actual result: -------------- Nothing is returned until the buffer is filled. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=29726&edit=1
