That said, I recall that the current sockets extension maintainer desires to label the extension stable as soon as possible. This means that it is highly unlikely that the API will change.

[PHP] Socket programming with PHP risky?
I've noticed in the PHP docs "EXPERIMENTAL" is marked over all the socket functions. Would it be risky to develop a PHP socket app using those functions? It seems they could change with the next release and my app would instantly stop working. On the other hand, I've found a lot of tutorials extolling PHP's socket functions, and since I know PHP a bit now I would rather use it for my TCP socket application than learn C and implement it there. What do you think? ...Rene -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Maybe try and have the command inetd is set to execute as /usr/local/bin/php -q /usr/local/mikecarel/samples instead of using a shebang line and having your PHP file executable and see if that works?

Re: [PHP] socket programming
I'm afraid I don't know the answer to your question, Mike, but you may want to check out this month's php|architect. I just started reading through it and the cover story is about socket programming: http://www.phparchitect.com/ Hope this helps, -Step > Hi to all, > > Is it possible to run php in the web running in a specified port without > installing apache in Linux? > > Can anyone give a sample code for this?

How to do it varies between linuz distros, basically it allows you to assign a port number to any program in the system and all the program has to do is send it's output to the standard output (use echo in the case of PHP).
