Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2012-08-23 15:02:25] niki at gorchilov dot com Description: ------------ libcurl has 6 callback options that are missing in PHP bindings, but give the user great control over the underlying socket: - CURLOPT_SOCKOPTFUNCTION - CURLOPT_SOCKOPTDATA - CURLOPT_OPENSOCKETFUNCTION - CURLOPT_OPENSOCKETDATA - CURLOPT_CLOSESOCKETFUNCTION - CURLOPT_CLOSESOCKETDATA Without support for these options, developers can't set socket bindings, options and marks on connections done via cURL. That is a great limitation for serious network applications written in PHP. Here's one real example: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/12080550/tproxy-with-libcurl-or-http-streams- under-php Full description of these options is available at: http://curl.haxx.se/libcurl/c/curl_easy_setopt.html#CURLOPTSOCKOPTFUNCTION ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=62906&edit=1
