Req #77511 [NEW]: Support for socket stream

From: ininflamable at gmail dot com Operating system: PHP version: Irrelevant Package: MySQLi related Bug Type: Feature/Change Request Bug description:Support for socket stream Description: ------------ To connect to MySQL through an ssh tunnel, we now have to have a process that opens that tunnel and then close that process when it is not necessary. It would be much simpler if you could open a socket stream and when opening the connection with MySQL, specify that you do it through that socket stream. Test script: --------------- $scp = ssh2_connect($host, 22) ssh2_auth_pubkey_file($scp, $user, $pub_key, $pem_key, $key_pwd); $tunnel = ssh2_tunnel($scp, 'localhost', 3306); $db = new mysqli(null, 'root', null, null, null, $tunnel); -- Edit bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=77511&edit=1 -- Try a snapshot (PHP 5.4): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=77511&r=trysnapshot54 Try a snapshot (PHP 5.5): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=77511&r=trysnapshot55 Try a snapshot (trunk): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=77511&r=trysnapshottrunk Fixed in SVN: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=77511&r=fixed Fixed in release: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=77511&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=77511&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=77511&r=needscript Try newer version: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=77511&r=oldversion Not developer issue: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=77511&r=support Expected behavior: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=77511&r=notwrong Not enough info: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=77511&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=77511&r=submittedtwice register_globals: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=77511&r=globals PHP 4 support discontinued: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=77511&r=php4 Daylight Savings: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=77511&r=dst IIS Stability: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=77511&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=77511&r=gnused Floating point limitations: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=77511&r=float No Zend Extensions: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=77511&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=77511&r=mysqlcfg
