Hi All,
I'm trying to work out how to close the connection to the browser at a
defined point within my code, but go on to do some time-consuming
processing with PHP.
Although it *should* be possible to do this by moving the slow stuff into a
function registered with register_shutdo wn_function, it appears that in
many cases, the connection is not closed before calling the shutdown
function - there are also issues with calling other functions from the
registered function.
I can't close stdout since I don't have a handle for it.
While I can get the desired result by creating a sort of 'proxy' which posts
on to the real script without waiting for the latter to finish this will be
rather difficult to implement in the operational context.
TIA,
C. 3 6944

I'm not sure if this is going to be possible for you but I do this sort
of thing with a process daemon.
The initiating script dumps a record into an SQL table to schedule a job
start. I then have a small perl daemon process watching this table for
jobs and then exec's the relevant php process. The php process updates
the current status field in the table as it runs so I can have a script
to display the job queue. I also have space for the offline process to
enter a link into the job queue to collect the process output.

Yes, I thought about doing that but to get turnaround I require I would need
to poll the queue ever three seconds. Then I have the complication of
locking the requests that are being processed from the queue if I do it via
'cron' and care/feeding of homegrown daemons poses a number of problems
too.
grr.
I guess I could do `at now php -q script.php $params` too - but that
requires me to rewrite a LOT of code.
I've now created a proxy script in PHP which relays POST/GET requests to
another script collects the headers, and any output up until it sees a
specific string in the output then closes the connection and returns the
headers and content to the client. Only problem is that even an explicit
flush() in the backend script doesn't have the desired effect. (no...not
using mod_gzip, nor do I think I'm using anything else which might be
buffering the output in Apache).
Any more suggestions?

Solved - added a print "\n"; before flush()

I have an Access MDB which instantiates a class in a custom DLL, manipulates

The MDB does other things,too, and generally behaves itself as desired.
But, if I have done the DLL thing, even though I close the MDB, Access

If I haven't used the DLL, all is well.
The DLL is one I wrote myself in VB.

I have an SqlConnection object within my Web.UI.Page object. The
thinking is that the connection to the database server is opened once
when the page starts to do its thing, then when everything is rendered
down to the browser, and all references to the page object are ended,
the connection to the server can be closed.
First of all, are the SqlConnection Open and Close methods quick

I have to admit, I'm not sure what happens here. Will someone explain this

I am currently implementing a singleton pattern for accessing a
database. Is it advisable to close the connection to the database at
all -- thus leaving it open or should it be closed. If closed, when
should I it close it -- after the execution of the each command to the
database? If leaving open, what impacts does it have. Imagining that
it is one connection to the database.
Thanks,

I just wondered if someone could clarify... I have a a script connecting
with mysql_connect and in an include at end of page mysql_close
If they script terminates before end of page ie. with an exit() or maybe
trigger_error(), does php always disconnect the open'ed connection?
I ask because PHP manual says yes, but I've seen some comments relating
to PHP 4 saying it doesn't.
Please can you tell me your experiences?

Hi there, when my ASP page receives the client request, I want to

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
