Hi.
During a socket read, why would all the requested number of bytes not get sent? For example, I request 1000 bytes:
<?php
$data = @socket_read ($socket, 2048, PHP_BINARY_READ);
?>
This is actually in a loop, so I can get all the data if split up. So, for example, here's how the data split up in 3 iterations (for 1000 bytes):
650 bytes
200 bytes
150 bytes
But if I can accept up to 2048 bytes per socket read, why would it not pull all 1000 bytes initially in 1 step? Any thoughts on this would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
~Philip
