The cpu usage will be determined more by what you make it do when it's not sleeping than when it is. > Is there any real examples. Yes, I already gave you the url: http://php.net/pcntl There's an example right there on the page. It lets you handle hangups, restarts, etc. Copy and paste that and add your own code in the while(1) loop. > I read on devshed article about TCP socket > listenig, but I don't like this. That's pretty much how it's done. If you want to listen to a program you have to use some type of socket, tcp is they way I'd go. -- Greg Donald http://destiney.com/ -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
Re: Re[2]: [PHP] daemonized php
Umm, have your PHP program output a integer to
a file somewhere, and just map the integer to
a status, example, if "1" exists in the file, it's
doing step 1, etc.

Remember to http://us4.php.net/manual/en/function.set-time-limit.php That will allow your PHP program to run infinitely long -- and not time out after x seconds. -Dan On Mon, 2003-07-07 at 09:08, Uros wrote: > Hello, > > Ok let be more specific about my idea.
