I'm trying to use a named pipe in PHP, but I have a feeling I'm
misunderstanding something. I'm hoping someone might have some
insight. Here's the basic outline of what I'm doing
posix_mkfifo($argfile, 0600)
$argp = fopen($argfile, "w+");
$command = "program $argfile";
$fp = popen($command, "r");
fputs($argp, 'data = ' . $post);
$response = fgetcsv($fp, 1000);
The named pipe is being created ok. But my page hangs while
trying to read the response in the last line. Everything works
fine if I replace the named pipe with a standard file. So it
really seems that it is the use of the named pipe that is wedging
me.
Any thoughts?
