note 22327 added to features.commandline

PHP 4.3 and above automatically have STDOUT, STDIN, and STDERR openned ... but < 4.3.0 do not. This is how you make code that will work in versions previous to PHP 4.3 and future versions without any changes: if (version_compare(phpversion(),'4.3.0','<')) { define('STDIN',fopen("php://stdin","r")); define('STDOUT',fopen("php://stout","r")); define('STDERR',fopen("php://sterr","r")); register_shutdown_function( create_function( '' , 'fclose(STDIN); fclose(STOUT); fclose(STERR); return true;' ) ); } /* get some STDIN up to 256 bytes */ $str = fgets(STDIN,256); -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/features.commandline.php http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+22327 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+22327 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+22327
