Description:
------------
In a continous loop for processing data with options for
entering a process char (like 'q' for quit, etc.) - the
feof() does not report no input (EOF) from STDIN (keyboard).
note: This is about the CLI version
example: the loop should output ....<keypress char>....etc
do {
if ( !feof(STDIN) ) { $x = fgetc(STDIN); echo $x; }
echo '.';
}
while(true);
THE PHP MANUAL SAYS -------------------------
feof (PHP 3, PHP 4, PHP 5)
feof -- Tests for end-of-file on a file pointer
Description
bool feof ( resource handle )
Returns TRUE if the file pointer is at EOF or an error occurs
(including socket timeout); otherwise returns FALSE.
-----------------------------------------------
Apparantly "Tests for end-of-file on a file pointer" does
not TEST for anything !!
