Re: Scope of set_time_limit

BTW, offhand, I'm not sure that it's really not working. The time limit should still be imposed (at least under UNIX, not under Windows). However, the executed program will go on running. Zeev At 07:17 15/1/2001, Zak Greant wrote:

A recent note added to the manual errata pointed out the set_time_limit does not affect system commands that have been executed by PHP. I would guess that attempting to limit system behavior in this way is beyond the scope of set_time_limit. Any opinions or options on this issue? My feeling is that we document that set_time_limit is not a safe way to limit the resource usage of commands run via calls to exec, etc... --zak -- PHP Development Mailing List <http://www.php.net/> To unsubscribe, e-mail: php-dev-unsubscribe@lists.php.net For additional commands, e-mail: php-dev-help@lists.php.net To contact the list administrators, e-mail: php-list-admin@lists.php.net
