[PHP-DEV] Bug #13084: can't pipe into php script From: cynic <email protected>
Date: 08/31/01

From: cynic <email protected>
Operating system: NT 5 SP 1
PHP version: 4.0CVS-2001-08-31
PHP Bug Type: Scripting Engine problem
Bug description: can't pipe into php script

cvs up -r PHP_4_0_7 on both machines done around 17:30 GMT.

on NT5 (standard cmd shell), attempt to pipe into the PHP
script fails, on FreeBSD it works fine. I'd love to blame
it on the stupid shell, but hey, I need this feature. :)

on the NT5 box, the phpx suffix has the following handler
for the "Run" action: c:\usr\local\bin\php.exe -q %1 %*

c:\temp> echo "foo bar baz" | test.phpx
The process tried to write to a nonexistent pipe.
^C

c:\temp> cat test.phpx
<?
$in = fopen('php://stdin', 'r');
while(!feof($in)){
    echo fgets($in, 4096);
}
echo "\n";
?>

c:\temp>

[cynic(cynic) <email protected> bin]$ echo "foo bar baz" | ./test.phpx
foo bar baz

[cynic(cynic) <email protected> bin]$ cat test.phpx
#!/tmp/php-4.0.7/bin/php -q
<?
$in = fopen('php://stdin', 'r');
while(!feof($in)){
    echo fgets($in, 4096);
}
echo "\n";
?>
