Ejemplo #1 Basic sapi_windows_generate_ctrl_event() Usage

This example shows how to pass along CTRL+BREAK events to a child process. In this case the child process echoes I'm still alive every second, until the user presses CTRL+BREAK, what causes only the child process to be terminated.

<?php
// forward CTRL+BREAK events to the child process
sapi_windows_set_ctrl_handler('sapi_windows_generate_ctrl_event');

// create a child process which echoes every second
$cmd = ['php', '-r', 'while (true) { echo "I\'m still alive\n"; sleep(1); }'];
$descspec = array(['pipe', 'r'], ['pipe', 'w'], ['pipe', 'w']);
$options = ['create_process_group' => true];
$proc = proc_open($cmd, $descspec, $pipes, null, null, $options);
while (
true) {
echo
fgets($pipes[1]);
}
?>

This function may produce a Warning:

sapi_windows_set_ctrl_handler(): CTRL events trapping is only supported on console in script.php..

It happens when script is started by "php-cgi.exe", so "php.exe -q" should be used instead.

While pressing CTRL+C don't expect the handler to run instantly, i've ran some curl request in a loop and found that handler runs when either response arrives or request finishes by timeout.
