#37354 [NEW]: sleep() does not work as expected
From: jbricci at gmail dot com
Operating system: Windows 2003 ISAPI
PHP version: 5.1.4
PHP Bug Type: Unknown/Other Function
Bug description: sleep() does not work as expected
Description:
------------
sleep() does not work as it did before...
sleep() now only seems to work up to a certain number of seconds, I
haven't figured what that number is. But if this now how sleep() will work
in PHP, could you please add the maximum value, (number of seconds allowed
to be used in sleep()) to the manual.
Reproduce code:
---------------
<?
// some ridiculous amount of time..
sleep ( 63166608000 );
?>
Expected result:
----------------
script should sleep...
Actual result:
--------------
script continues without sleeping, and triggers a warning, that makes no
sense at all.
PHP Warning: sleep() [<a href='function.sleep'>function.sleep</a>]:
Number of seconds must be greater than or equal to 0 in
x:\www\docs\run\load.php on line 4
PHP 5.1.3 and in older versions, sleep() would sleep, no matter how many
seconds were used! snaps.php.net (5.2.dev-latest, 6.0-dev-latest) also
seem to follow version 5.1.3 and older version, sleeping no matter how
many seconds are used in sleep()!
