Example #1 Simple HTTP client


<?php

    //$pos = $input->search("TTP");
    $pos = $bev->input->search("TTP");

    while (($n = $bev->input->remove($buf, 1024)) > 0) {
        echo $buf;
    }
}

// Event callback
function eventcb($bev, $events, $base) {
    if ($events & EventBufferEvent::CONNECTED) {

        exit("Done\n");
    }
}

if ($argc != 3) {

    exit();
}

$base = new EventBase();

$dns_base = new EventDnsBase($base, TRUE); // We'll use async DNS resolving
if (!$dns_base) {
