#35745 [NEW]: Status of persistent socket connections in stream_get_meta_data
From: gavin dot brown at uk dot com
Operating system: All
PHP version: 5.1.1
PHP Bug Type: Feature/Change Request
Bug description: Status of persistent socket connections in stream_get_meta_data
Description:
------------
Currently, there is now way to determine if the pfsockopen() created a new
connection or used an existing connection.
Expected result:
----------------
This information is very important for some protocols (specifically, the
EPP protocol, RFC 3730, and its TCP transport specification in RFC 3734),
which uses a stateful session management system.
I'd suggest something like this:
<?php
$sock = pfsockopen($host, $port, $etc);
$data = stream_get_meta_data($sock);
print $data[persistent];
?>
the value of $data[persistent] might be one of "new" or "existing",
depending on whether the previous pfsockopen() had to create a new
connection, or was able to reuse an existing one.
This would be very useful for protocols like EPP (see RFC 3734) and IMAP,
which are stateful, and for which negotiation and authentication are done
once, upon connection.
