ID: 26238 User updated by: spam at vrana dot cz Reported By: spam at vrana dot cz Status: Verified Bug Type: Documentation problem Operating System: * PHP Version: 4CVS, 5CVS New Comment:
PHP-CLI has output_buffering always Off as of 4.3.5. For the others it seems that output is flushed if both flush() and ob_flush() are called. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-02-18 18:33:52] scottmacvicar at ntlworld dot com Setting output_buffering to a value causes it to create an ouput buffer on startup using the default output handler. You can see this using print_r(ob_get_status()); within the script. ob_flush() should be used in this case rather than flush() since the latter only calls the backends flush method. So i believe this bug is bogus, though it could be a documentation problem. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-02-18 17:19:31] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Here's nice and short reproduce script: # php -d'output_buffering=2' -r 'while(1) {echo "."; flush(); sleep(1); }' ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-11-17 13:14:20] scottm at spamcop dot net Confirmed. If you set output_buffering = 3 then it will flush them in groups of three. Running RH9, Apache 1.3.29 and PHP 4.3.4 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-11-13 08:40:59] spam at vrana dot cz Description: ------------ I have set output_buffering = 4096 and flush(), ob_implicit_flush(), ob_flush() and similar functions doesn't work. This is reproducible in PHP Apache module, in PHP-CLI and also on Linux. Reproduce code: --------------- while (true) { echo "."; flush(); sleep(1); } Expected result: ---------------- . (1 second) . (1 second) ... Actual result: -------------- nothing (for output_buffering seconds) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=26238&edit=1
