(PHP 5 >= 5.3.0, PHP 7, PHP 8, PECL phar >= 1.0.0)
Phar::isBuffering — Used to determine whether Phar write operations are being buffered, or are flushing directly to disk
This method can be used to determine whether a Phar will save changes to disk immediately, or whether a call to Phar::stopBuffering() is needed to enable saving changes.
Phar write buffering is per-archive, buffering active for the
foo.phar Phar archive does not affect changes
to the bar.phar Phar archive.
This function has no parameters.
Example #1 A Phar::isBuffering() example
<?php
$p = new Phar(dirname(__FILE__) . '/brandnewphar.phar', 0, 'brandnewphar.phar');
$p2 = new Phar('existingphar.phar');
$p['file1.txt'] = 'hi';
var_dump($p->isBuffering());
var_dump($p2->isBuffering());
?>
=2=
<?php
$p->startBuffering();
var_dump($p->isBuffering());
var_dump($p2->isBuffering());
$p->stopBuffering();
?>
=3=
<?php
var_dump($p->isBuffering());
var_dump($p2->isBuffering());
?>The above example will output:
bool(false) bool(false) =2= bool(true) bool(false) =3= bool(false) bool(false)
