I'm trying to understand something about fread(). I'm using fread() on
an incoming socket stream that will send, for example, 26630 characters:
while ( ($buf=fread($read[$i], 8192)) != '' ) {
$sock_data .= $buf;
usleep(1000);
echo ".";
}
echo ",";
As soon as the socket client sends the data, immediately the server
will echo:
................................................................................................................................................
Then wait nearly a minute, and echo:
,
So my question is, why does fread wait if there is nothing more to
read? Shouldn't it return immediately? (That's what I want.) And as
for the delay, it's there so that if the incoming data is a little
slow, it has time to catch up with fread. Thanks.
