note 84249 added to function.time-nanosleep

A response to the note below: Your function is also useless, as the WinNT 32 kernel only functions at a minimum of about 10+ ms (1,000 us), rendering usleep() useless, because usleep uses the C function which is provided by the system (in this case, kernel32.dll). You'll want to use a function that does not rely on the kernel, but rather something made for precise measurement: <?php function usleep_win( $micro_seconds ) { if ( @function_exists( "socket_create" ) && @function_exists( "socket_select" ) ) { $false = NULL; $socket = array( socket_create( AF_INET, SOCK_RAW, $false ) ); socket_select( $false, $false, $socket, 0, $micro_seconds ); return true; } else { return false; } } ?> This function will allow to you sleep for a specified microsecond, although I have measured it to be off by ~5 us. Again, most of this depends on the hardware in your system. If you _REALLY_ need to be precise to < 10 us, you shouldn't be using WinNT anyways! ---- Server IP: 216.235.15.211 Probable Submitter: 70.69.75.2 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.time-nanosleep.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/84249 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/84249/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/84249/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/84249/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/84249/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/84249/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/84249/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/84249 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/84249 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
