Makes sense. Dunno why it didn't occur to me before - the '3' says it
all.
I need the actual socket - which when written to will send data to the
client. Is it there in the request_rec structure?
Or can I get it some other way?
Tx,
Vinod.

Subject: [PHP-DEV] Re: Client socket
Since apache is multi-processed rather than multi-threaded, I'd imagine
that
you're getting the same socket file descriptor since each new connection
means a new fork of httpd, resulting in three file descriptors by the
time
you get to what you're doing.
Are you trying to get ahold of the socket/port number itself? Or connect
to
the actual socket?

Hi,
Continuing with the problem that I've been having...
I made changes to the php_apache.c file and added a new php function
of my own, which is supposed to return the client socket when called
from a php script. Here is the code for the function -
---
/* {{{ proto int apache_client_socket()
Get the client socket */
PHP_FUNCTION(apache_client_socket)
{
RETURN_LONG(((request_rec
*)SG(server_context))-connection-client-fd);
}

I recompiled php and made a module out of it. Worked perfectly. Now,
I wrote a php script with the following code -
---
?
echo apache_client_socket();
?
---
This script I call from the browser, and everytime it displays a '3'.
I even called it from different browser windows, still the same.
That cant be alright since if the fd is 3 as shown in one browser
window, it has to be something different in the other window since the
browser defaults to a keep-alive connection, and the fd's have to be
different.
I'll would tell you why I need the socket, but I've described it so
many times that I'm gonna die :( I'll forward you a mail if you are
really interested.
Tx,
Vinod.
