Creating a Server using Sockets

[Anon]

Hi!

I want to create a server with php using the server-sockets. the problem is, that it should accept more than one connection from various clients at the same time. in java i would use threads - is it also possible in php or is there any other solution?

regards,
sebastian

you could create an array of socket resources and assign the ports that you want them to listen on. Then u can have multiple sockets

You could use the socket_select function to kind of simulate multi-threading...I actually wrote a client/server chat program using that idea and it works fairly well...Send me an email if you would like some help getting it working
