note 25739 deleted from function.pcntl-fork by sniper

Note Submitter: guy@bhaktiandvedanta.com ---- For Windows users and everybody that doesn't have PCNTL installed (like me...), This is a way to do fork on a script. This script doesn't have to be used to call to the same script, it can also call another script. For example, a different script that does logging work on the server. The "ignore_user_abort" is neccessary only when calling to the same script. The use of sleep here is just to show some activity. <? // fork example ignore_user_abort(true); if (!isset($child)) { // parent process $fp = fsockopen("www.mysite.com", 80); fputs($fp, "GET /fork.php?child=yes HTTP/1.1\n"); fputs($fp, "Host: www.mysite.com \n"); fputs($fp, "Connection: close\n\n"); $buf = fgets($fp,12); fclose($fp); for ($i=0; $i<10; $i++) { flush(); sleep(5); echo "<br>Parent process continues"; } } else { // child process $tag = "child process file"; $write = fopen("files/fork.log", "w"); fwrite ($write, $tag); fclose($write); } ?> Guy Laor
