Bug description: fgets() returns garbage when STDIN set to non-blocking
I am trying to use the CLI version of 4.3.0-pre1. My script needs to act
if there hasn't been input within a certain amount of time. I've used the
following function to accomplish this with TCP/IPsockets in non-blocking
mode:
function GetSocketLine($socket, $timeout)
{
$timeout += time();
$holdString = "";
while(time() < $timeout)
{
$string = fgets($socket, 1024);
if($string != false)
break;
}
return($string);
}
However, if I use set_stream_blocking() to set STDIN to non-blocking, the
above code returns garbage instead of "false" when there is nothing to
receive. It would seem to me that if STDIN is set to non-blocking and
STDIN is passed to the above function as $socket, it ought to return
"false" when blocking would occur--it shouldn't return garbage.
