note 94338 added to function.pcntl-fork

If you want to execute some code after your php page has been returned to the user. Try something like this - function index() { function shutdown() { posix_kill(posix_getpid(), SIGHUP); } // Do some initial processing echo("Hello World"); // Switch over to daemon mode. if ($pid = pcntl_fork()) return; // Parent ob_end_clean(); // Discard the output buffer and close fclose(STDIN); // Close all of the standard fclose(STDOUT); // file descriptors as we fclose(STDERR); // are running as a daemon. register_shutdown_function('shutdown'); if (posix_setsid() < 0) return; if ($pid = pcntl_fork()) return; // Parent // Now running as a daemon. This process will even survive // an apachectl stop. sleep(10); $fp = fopen("/tmp/sdf123", "w"); fprintf($fp, "PID = %s\n", posix_getpid()); fclose($fp); return; } ---- Server IP: 69.147.83.197 Probable Submitter: 122.104.130.236 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.pcntl-fork.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/94338 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/94338/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/94338/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/94338/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/94338/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/94338/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/94338/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/94338 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/94338 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
