proc_open.... trying to execute a php file like an include()

Gamer.Saga · August 23rd, 2008, 5:02 AM

The scenario is, I want to make proc_open() work like include().... I need to have access to all the variables like $_GET, $_POST, $_SERVER, $_REQUEST, $HTTP_SERVER_VARS, and what not. I don't want it to have any call back to the functions that I'm executing it from, I know that's an unlikely scenario to happen. I can't find any information on how apache does it.... at all... I think I might have to use "php -a" to make it happen, but I don't want to really do that.. Any help with this would be great.... Btw, before someone suggests using some other function, the reason I need to use proc_open(), is because I'm trying to emulate multi-threading.

Thanks in advanced.

the manpage for proc_open has an example which I believe is doing sort of what you need to do:

PHP: proc_open - Manual

Check example #1. You can put $_GET,$_POST inside $env:

PHP Code:


			
$env = array('POST' => $_POST, 'GET' => $_GET);

and then call them inside the script you are executing with proc_open, like:

PHP Code:


			
$_ENV['POST']['some_post_var']

It is a round about way to do it, but i think it should work

I find everything that I put into $env to be unreliable. I've gotten only the first letter from everything I've had in my $_GET array before. I pretty much just came to the conclusion I need to figure out how to pass on the data that apache passes on to php, in the exact same way. Which, I can't read through C++, so I have no idea how this works, and no one else seems to either. I'm about to just give up and go ruby.
