this function, compared to the function socket_accept, got an extra argument "timeout".
To make this function wait indefinitelly to incoming connections, just as in socket_accept, set timeout to -1. It works for me with PHP 5.0.4.

= ?): resource|falseAccepte une connexion sur un socket créé précédemment avec stream_socket_server().
server_socket
Le socket serveur depuis lequel accepter une connexion.
timeout
Remplace le délai d'expiration par défaut du socket. Ce délai doit être donné en secondes.
peername
Le nom (adresse) du client connecté, si fourni et si disponible pour le transport sélectionné.
Note:
Peut également être déterminé plus tard, en utilisant la fonction stream_socket_get_name().
Retourne un flux vers la connexion socket acceptée ou false
si une erreur survient.
Cette fonction ne doit pas être utilisée avec les sockets serveur UDP. À la place, utilisez les fonctions stream_socket_recvfrom() et stream_socket_sendto().

To check if there's a new connection waiting, without blocking, or (when using non-blocking mode) without notices), you can use stream_accept (as opposed to socket_select).
<?php
class GenericClass {
protected $resSocket=null;
function acceptConnections() {
# check that we still have a resource
if(is_resource($this->resSocket)) {
$arrRead=array($this->resSocket);
$arrWrite=array();
/** @warning Passing $arrRead,$arrWrite by reference */
if(stream_select($arrRead,$arrWrite,$arrWrite,0)) {
$resConnection=stream_socket_accept($this->resSocket,0);
# ... other stuff here
}
}
}
}
?>
This code could be very helpfull...
The following code is for the "server". It listen for a message until CTRL-C
<?php
while (true)
{
// disconnected every 5 seconds...
receive_message('127.0.0.1','85',5);
}
function receive_message($ipServer,$portNumber,$nbSecondsIdle)
{
// creating the socket...
$socket = stream_socket_server('tcp://'.$ipServer.':'.$portNumber, $errno, $errstr);
if (!$socket)
{
echo "$errstr ($errno)<br />\n";
}
else
{
// while there is connection, i'll receive it... if I didn't receive a message within $nbSecondsIdle seconds, the following function will stop.
while ($conn = @stream_socket_accept($socket,$nbSecondsIdle))
{
$message= fread($conn, 1024);
echo 'I have received that : '.$message;
fputs ($conn, "OK\n");
fclose ($conn);
}
fclose($socket);
}
}
?>
The following code is for the "client". It send a message, and read the respons...
<?php
send_message('127.0.0.1','85','Message to send...');
function send_message($ipServer,$portServer,$message)
{
$fp = stream_socket_client("tcp://$ipServer:$portServer", $errno, $errstr);
if (!$fp)
{
echo "ERREUR : $errno - $errstr<br />\n";
}
else
{
fwrite($fp,"$message\n");
$response = fread($fp, 4);
if ($response != "OK\n")
{echo 'The command couldn\'t be executed...\ncause :'.$response;}
else
{echo 'Execution successfull...';}
fclose($fp);
}
}
?>
Note that if you use 0 as timeout, the connection will timeout right away.
To whom it may concern, and it may concern you greatly, stream_set_blocking has no effect on stream_socket_accept.
If you want it to return right away, connection or not, use 0 for the timeout parameter.
