ID: 12802 Comment by: tyra3l at gmail dot com Reported by: cheapsalsa at yahoo dot com Summary: gethostbyname/gethostbyaddr timeout Status: Assigned Type: Feature/Change Request Package: *General Issues PHP Version: 4.0CVS-2001-08-16 Assigned To: pajoye Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: can I access that implementation from userspace right now? if there is a way, then it's fine for me as is, but I wouldn't dare to change the current implementation of those functions. so maybe the best would be to add new userspace functions for the async behaviour. Tyrael Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2010-11-19 01:07:41] [email protected] We have an implementation, only a matter of using it instead of get*. I have some patch for that, adding some features for the DNS APIs. It should be easy to modify this function while being at it. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2010-11-19 00:53:25] tyra3l at gmail dot com maybe we could use some non-blocking dns library? http://c-ares.haxx.se/ Tyrael ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2010-11-19 00:05:31] [email protected] For the record, it is not possible to do it in PHP. These functions are implemented by the operating systems. Without creating a thread for the get* hosts, we won't have any control on the timeout. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2010-03-04 16:34:30] tyra3l at gmail dot com bump ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2009-03-04 19:19:12] adifranco at tagged dot com Any intent to fix this? This kind of indeterminism is very crippling to trying to use these functions in a feature that interacts with the user. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
