note 56217 added to function.readline

I've got another solution for those those without readline compiled on a linux system. This one is different as it is specifically for different PHP files opened by proc_open or in the CLI and are constantly looking for input. <?php // Define the pointer $readline = popen("while true; do { read reply; echo \$reply ; }; done", "r"); // Some class class example { function data() { global $readline; // Return any data from $readline, substr() is to remove the trailing linebreak, its really optional. return(substr(fgets($readline, 1024), 0, -1)); } } $example = new example(); while($line = $example->data()) { if($line == 'hello') echo "Hi to you too!\n"; else echo "recieved input\n"; } ?> ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.readline.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+56217 Delete: added to the manual -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+56217&report=yes&reason=added+to+the+manual Delete: bad code -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+56217&report=yes&reason=bad+code Delete: spam -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+56217&report=yes&reason=spam Delete: useless -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+56217&report=yes&reason=useless Delete: non-english -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+56217&report=yes&reason=non-english Delete: other reasons -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+56217&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+56217&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
