Adding Multi-Threading to PHP (Purely New Idea Try it)

[Gemini 🤖]

I had an idea of Adding Multi-threading functionality to php ( i called it PHPThreader ) in little words the idea was :-

1. make a Js class which Creates Ajax Objects in order to call PHP Scripts(Threads)

2. then make a PHP class Implements and Interfaces the Js Class

3. Implement the PHP Class with your script easily and LAUNCH threads very easy Just Like:-

$obj=new Thread($filename,$Inputs); in other words:-

$e=new Thread("Download.php","url="http://www.phpfreaks.com");

 

you will find the Classes & Documentation & Examples at :-

http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=203377&package_id=242365&release_id=532251

where

 

AjT.php        : the Js Class which is implemented by the PHP class

 

Threader.php : PHP Class, which is a front to deal with the Js Class

 

Bag.php        : is also dealing with Js Class to know the status of Thread( a finishing Alarm )

 

Please tell me what do u think of the Idea & Implementation .Thanks in advance

Heeeeey Guys what's wrong ? >

23 reads 18 hours No responses No trails/downloads ( I checked SF )

Please Try again and give me ur feedbacks i need my class reviewed.

The Download Doesn't work for me. It Keeps saying empty zip file, nothing to extract.

 

STUPID VISTA!

 

I had this idea before.

May Because it's tar try using 7-zip

Seems like an interesting idea. I can't test it out but from the code it seems simple enough and functional.

 

I think it would be quite useful in certain applications where a script loads data from multiple locations.

 

I read some of your code and I can see it will not work with IE5 and IE6 due to it use the xmlhttprequest() method. I understand you are not too concerned about Internet Explorer 6 but it is widely used and should be taken into account for a public project like this. Simply do something similar to below to use ActiveX.

 

try{
obj = new XMLHttpRequest();
}catch(e if (!obj)){
obj = new ActiveXObject("Msxml2.XMLHTTP");
}catch(e){
obj = new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP");
}

Thanks alot for your concern

Internet Explorer 6 but it is widely used and should be taken into account for a public project like this

Ok this is a point i will add it

I can't test it

i think u will like trying the second example it is a PDM(Php Download Manager) which has the abillity to open a number of connections at the same time and display a simple progress of each connection

loads data from multiple locations

i was thinking of an RSS reader example that graps them from multiple resources at the same time which saves time and makes the best use of the internet connection . But i didn't find good examples for reading RSS feads using PHP  ???

UP

this is not testing this is ignorance. But if downloading is that hard here is the code
