Re: new subcategory "Node" & something about processes

> Hm.. Yes.. But why don't leave Net_Socket how it is and create some new category then. No problem with this at all, except that I still think all this stuff is vaguely networking related, and so belongs under the Net/ namespace in PEAR, and the Networking category on the pear website. > Socket is much more than a tcp/udp network socket. And where to store fifo or sysvmsg stuff then. > As said in pear's documentation I know that something shouldn't be twice available in pear. Well it shouldn't be available twice if the two are indifferent. If however there is sufficient difference, then there's no problem having two implementations. > But in this case the second Socket solution would provide lots of nice feautres. > Because of portability, the socket extension also works for windows. > But I think you're talking about "Should i install php with sockets now because of that?" > Well.. If someone hardly needs unix sockets in the script he must install the extension. > Why shouldn't Pear provide a nice interface to use them ? I never said it shouldn't. -- Richard Heyes V-webmail - http://www.v-webmail.co.uk
