Bug description: php stdin control under windows dos prompt
Description:
------------
I'm not sure if non-blocking mode works under windows xp..
I can't seem to process anything while waiting for user input.. it's
possible that I just do not know how to code this in php and it is my
fault. Although I searched for several days before posting this.
Can anyone help me out on this?
p.s. please email me if I don't respond.. I might loose track of this bug
if I'm not contacted in some way.
Thank you.
Reproduce code:
---------------
set_time_limit (0);
$fp_stdin = fopen("php://stdin", "rb");
stream_set_blocking($fp_stdin, false);
ob_implicit_flush ();
$input = get_line($fp_stdin);
function get_line($fp) {
$input = "";
$char = "";
do {
if (($char = @fread($fp,1)) !== false) {
$input .= $char;
if ($char == "\n") { break; }
$char = "";
} else {
echo "testing..\n";
}
} while(true);
return $input;
}; // end function get_line
Expected result:
----------------
I should be able to see the word testing until the user types something..
as in.. say I typed in "shutdown"..
then the program would exit... after testing my input..
the testing is a substitute for checking telnet connections to allow for
user input from the keyboard and at the same time run through other
processes.
Actual result:
--------------
it waits for user input.
