[alin19]

i have found this with google:

it is this good?

 

 

THE PHP SOCKET SERVER (run on browser for the moment - daemon later when sorted!)

<?php

// set some variables

$host = "my ip address";

$port = 1234;

// don't timeout!

set_time_limit(0);

// create socket

$socket = socket_create(AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, SOL_TCP) or die("Could not create socket\n");

// bind socket to port

$result = socket_bind($socket, $host, $port) or die("Could not bind to socket\n");

// start listening for connections

$result = socket_listen($socket, 5) or die("Could not set up socketlistener\n");

// accept incoming connections

// spawn another socket to handle communication

$spawn = socket_accept($socket) or die("Could not accept incomingconnection\n");

// read client input

$input = socket_read($spawn, 1024) or die("Could not read input\n");

$output = "Hello"."\0";

socket_write($spawn, $output, strlen ($output)) or die("Could not write output\n");

*/

// close sockets

socket_close($spawn);

socket_close($socket);

?>

nobody can help me?

Sorry, but you seem to have failed to actually ask a question. What exactly are you trying to do, and what is it that isn't working for you?

[alin19]

i have a server and i must conect to it, i know how to do this with java, how can i do it with php?

 

 

host: "127.0.0.1"

port: "9191"

[trq]

What protocol?

[alin19]

try{

kin = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(System.in));

s = new Socket("127.0.0.1",9191);

dos = new DataOutputStream(s.getOutputStream());

            dis = new DataInputStream(s.getInputStream());

            System.out.print(dis.readUTF());//connected

            System.out.print(dis.readUTF());//user

            dos.writeUTF(kin.readLine());dos.flush();

            System.out.print(dis.readUTF());//pass

            dos.writeUTF(kin.readLine());dos.flush();

            String z="";

BufferedWriter out = new BufferedWriter(fstream);

            while (true){

            System.out.print(dis.readUTF());//xml msl

            }

}catch(Exception e){

e.printStackTrace();

}

 

i don't know exactly what it is using, but with this is working, i need to do something like this but in php and i don't know from where to start

 

i will find out in a few minutes what protocol it is

 

 

[alin19]

tcp is the protocol that is used

[trq]

tcp is the protocol that is used

 

While tcp is a protocol, it is a much lower level prototocol than is typically used for any form of transmission. For instance, http (what your using to view this website) is built on top of TCP, but it would be rediculously complex to try and request a webpage via TCP allone.

 

In order for this connection to take place, what does the server expect in its request and what do you expect in its response?

[alin19]

i haven't used connection to server, so sorry if i don't explain so well,

 

the connection is only local and it is made with a java serve not php,

 

after the connection is made it outputs: username, and wait for a username, the password and wait for the password,

 

after that only outputs data in this format:
