Hi.
I'd like to build a replacement for SQL (yes, talk about an ambitious
project! ;), because the constant transferal of data in and out of SQL
from
Javascript (where everything might as well be object-oriented and
hierarchial) is a pain in the neck.
But in order to do so, I'd very much like PHP (the server still controls
the data after all) to support shared memory efficiently.
Something like
sharedmem $bigNestedArray; // $bigNestedArray would be shared accross the
entire server and all CPUs on it.
as you now have
global $bigNestedArray;
would be ideal.
I bet this would be useful for a host of other applications as well, and
fairly easy to implement.
I'm an application programmer by trade, or I would hack this in myself.
I'd much rather see the PHP development team develop this in properly. I
don't think it would require much time, as OS-level shared memory has
been
easy to implement since the 1990s.
Please put this on the agenda, and get back to us in this thread as to
when
this will be available.
Hi,
You can already do it using APC's apc_store() and apc_fetch() functions
which let you use shared memory. But of course you should 'commit' every
change of the fetched variable.
