dont know exact answer...but maybe i can help you or point you to some good way if i understand...you want to parse some xml from web -> mean, download xml and parse it ... so, maybe u should try to "avoid" using cakephp defined functions (create some component to download and parse zml - witch you will manage ...)
but i think, using so much big xml file (assuming from load time) is not very good for your security (simple dos attack)... i should modify web to load it from ftp - web directory and i should manualy copy xml there... (loading of xml in php is not very time consuming - if xml is very large file, php compil. doesnt take time to check validity just use pointers - so far i know) 2010/3/10 cartosys <[email protected]>: > code: > > $link = 'http://some.xml.feed.xml'; > $parsed_xml = new XML($link); > $parsed_xml = Set::reverse($parsed_xml); > > The XML feed at hand is one that took over a minute to load via > browser. cakephp's XML returned an empty array after Set::reverse, > and always after ~30 seconds (timed with a timer). > > I looked into the deeper funcionality and found the trail to the > problem: > > wWhen "new Xml" is defined, xml.php calls http-socket.php's load > function which then calls socket.php's read function: > > The function, which starts on line 217 of socket.php, contains the > line: > > $buffer = fread($this->connection, $length); > > Which is where the parser time's out after 30 seconds.
