EventListener::__construct

(PECL event >= 1.2.6-beta)

EventListener::__construct — Creates new connection listener associated with an event base

Description

public EventListener::__construct(
     EventBase $base ,
     callable $cb ,
     mixed $data ,
     int $flags ,
     int $backlog ,
     mixed $target
)

Creates new connection listener associated with an event base.

Parameters

base: Associated event base.
cb: A callable that will be invoked when new connection received.
data: Custom user data attached to cb .
flags: Bit mask of EventListener::OPT_* constants. See EventListener constants .
backlog: Controls the maximum number of pending connections that the network stack should allow to wait in a not-yet-accepted state at any time; see documentation for your system’s listen function for more details. If backlog is negative, Libevent tries to pick a good value for the backlog ; if it is zero, Event assumes that listen is already called on the socket( target )
target: May be string, socket resource, or a stream associated with a socket. In case if target is a string, the string will be parsed as network address. It will be interpreted as a UNIX domain socket path, if prefixed with 'unix:' , e.g. 'unix:/tmp/my.sock' .

Return Values

Returns EventListener object representing the event connection listener.

Changelog

Version	Description
PECL event 1.5.0	UNIX domain sockets' support added.

Examples

Example #1 EventListener::__construct() example


<?php
/*
 * Simple echo server based on libevent's connection listener.
 *
 * Usage:
 * 1) In one terminal window run:
 *
 * $ php listener.php 9881
 *
 * 2) In another terminal window open up connection, e.g.:
 *
 * $ nc 127.0.0.1 9881
 *
 * 3) start typing. The server should repeat the input.
