note 115022 added to function.pcntl-signal-dispatch

Well I misspoke before. It is not enough to process signals outside of the signal handler. They must be processed outside of the tick handler (explicit or implied). So... Register a tick handler that calls pcntl_signal_dispatch(); In the signal handler, enqueue your signal; In the main loop of your script, process your signals; <?php declare(ticks=1); global $sig_queue; global $use_queue; $sig_queue = array(); $use_queue = true; // set to false to do it the old way function tick_handler() { pcntl_signal_dispatch(); } function sig_handler($sig) { global $sig_queue; global $use_queue; if(isset($use_queue) && $use_queue) { $sig_queue[] = $sig; } else { sig_helper($sig); } } function sig_helper($sig) { switch($sig) { case SIGHUP: $pid = pcntl_fork(); if($pid) print("forked $pid\n"); break; default: print("unhandled sig: $sig\n"); } } pcntl_signal(SIGHUP, "sig_handler"); while(true) { if($use_queue) foreach($sig_queue as $idx=>$sig) { sig_helper($sig); unset($sig_queue[$idx]); } sleep(1); } ?> ---- Server IP: 216.194.115.244 Probable Submitter: 216.55.28.6 ---- Manual Page -- http://php.net/manual/en/function.pcntl-signal-dispatch.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/115022 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/115022/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/115022/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/115022/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/115022/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/115022/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/115022/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/115022 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/115022 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
