Socket Server

Posted on 16th Feb 2014 07:03 pm by admin

In my following socket server, I am trying to listen to a connection through port 12345 in my web browser. http://127.0.0.1:12345/

I assumed that the following would detect that something was trying to connect to the port through the browser, using socket_create_listen(). I don't know if I am doing something wrong or just not understanding what socket_create_listen() is doing.

Does anyone know why when going to the address, my socket server isn't detecting the connection?

Note: The client is supposed to be the web browser, not another php file.

Here is my server class:
Code: [Select]<?php
set_time_limit(0);
class Pherver{
private $setup;
public $server;
public $connections;
function __construct(){
$this->setup = parse_ini_file("config.ini", TRUE);
$this->server = socket_create_listen($setup['server']['port'], $etup['server']['connections']);
socket_listen($this->server);
}
function start(){
while($client = socket_accept($this->server)){
socket_write($client, "hello");
print "here";
}
}
}
?>
Here is how I start the server:
Code: [Select]<?php
include 'Pherver.php';
$server = new Pherver();
$server->start();
?>
Thank you
