| Warning |
|
This function is EXPERIMENTAL. The behaviour of this function, the name of this
function, and anything else documented about this function may change in a future release of PHP
without notice. Be warned and use this function at your own risk.
|
After the socket socket has been created using socket_create() and bound to a name with socket_bind(), it may be told to listen for incoming
connections on socket. A maximum of backlog incoming connections
will be queued for processing.
socket_listen() is applicable only to sockets with type SOCK_STREAM or
SOCK_SEQPACKET.
Returns zero on success, or a negative error code on failure. This code may be passed to
socket_strerror() to get a textual explanation
of the error.
See also socket_accept(), socket_bind(),
socket_connect(), socket_create(), socket_get_status(), and socket_strerror().
