Greets everybody. My question regards psuedo-DOS (XP cmd.exe) piping and the CLI php parser. If you could help please continue reading.
The documention specifies that the CLI php parser "sets up" STDIN and its kin. It does in fact work fine assuming the STDIN is the console, but while I was just toying around with my File Type default command (setting it up WinXP so that 'foobar.php arg1 arg2' entered at the command line actually executes the script with arguments), I attempted some piping; which, through very shallow research, I've come to think uses STDIN. It fails; no piping whatsoever. Even the simplest 'dir | echo.php', where echo just implodes() $argv and echoes, gives no output. Is my suspicion that the CLI php parser does not set up STDIN to receive from a pipe correct, or am I missing something here? Thank you very much for your time, Nick ps - the type of File Type work I used to make the command line work is described here: http://www.php.net/manual/en/features.commandline.php -> do an in-page search for "phpNOSPAM" to find the comment quickly pps - if someone could try similar piping on a *nix box, I'd be interested to know how that goes -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
