This example shows the basic usage of
stream_socket_pair() in Inter-Process Comunication.
<?php
$sockets = stream_socket_pair(STREAM_PF_UNIX, STREAM_SOCK_STREAM, STREAM_IPPROTO_IP);
$pid = pcntl_fork();
if ($pid == -1) {
die('could not fork');
} else if ($pid) {
/* parent */
fclose($sockets[0]);
fwrite($sockets[1], "child PID: $pid\n");
echo fgets($sockets[1]);
fclose($sockets[1]);
} else {
/* child */
fclose($sockets[1]);
fwrite($sockets[0], "message from child\n");
echo fgets($sockets[0]);
fclose($sockets[0]);
}
?>
The above example will output
something similar to:
child PID: 1378
message from child
Load balance : Server 00
