Re: [PHP] Thread Safe?
Hi David, Install the non-thread safe version and run it in conjunction with FastCGI. You may also be interested in looking into WinCache for PHP. Non-thread safe works best with FastCGI, running PHP as an ISAPI module is NOT recommended. Cheers, Rob. David Stoltz wrote: Hi all, I'm installing 5.3.1 on my Windows Server with IIS6.

[PHP] Thread Safe?
Hi all, I'm installing 5.3.1 on my Windows Server with IIS6. Should I choose VC9 x86 Thread Safe or "non-thread safe" ? What is the difference? Thanks!
[PHP] Thread Safe?
Forgot to ask: On the Windows download page, there are options like: VC9 Thread Safe VC9 Non-Thread Safe VC6 Thread Safe ...etc What is the VC, and what is thread safe? Thanks! -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
Re: [PHP] Thread safe
Yeah but if you get a higher load of users that can get REALLY uglyif
it is strictly an update (editing of an already existing element) then
locking that record should be fine but if it's an insert or delete you
shouldn't lock the table.

Re: [PHP] Thread safe
If you use the database mechanism to lock the table during the
transaction, then the second simultaneous invocation of your PHP program
will wait (a tiny fraction of a second) until the first one is done.

More of a database issue. "select ... for update" is a good starting point
as you search the manual of your particular database platform.

[PHP] Thread safe
Hi,
In java servlets I used to use a "synchronised" block of code to make sure
it was thread safe...how do i do this in PHP?
Heres what should be thread safe
{
$r=select max(cno)+1 from MyTable;
(then i insert into the table the new cno plus my name)
insert into mytable ($r,'myname');
}
How to do this and make sure its thread safe?
Any help appreciated,
-Ryan
