Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2012-12-18 00:19:44] chrisw at networkm dot co dot uk Description: ------------ Would it be possible to provide access to socket error codes/messages without the need to import the underlying socket into php_sockets? It is often desirable to access the error information when a socket operation fails, and currently this is only possible via socket_import_stream, and subsequent calls to socket_last_error/socket_strerror. This is only possible if php_sockets is available to the PHP installation, which is frequently not the case. Test script: --------------- <?php $socket = stream_socket_client('tcp://11.22.33.44:123'); if (fwrite($socket, 'some data') === false) { $errCode = stream_socket_error($socket); echo 'Sending data failed: Socket error #'.$errCode; } Expected result: ---------------- Sending data failed: Socket error #<error code> Actual result: -------------- Fatal error - stream_socket_error or an equivalent function does not exist ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=63793&edit=1
