shm_get_varReturns a variable from shared memory

说明

shm_get_var(SysvSharedMemory $shm, int $key): mixed

shm_get_var() returns the variable with a given key, in the given shared memory segment. The variable is still present in the shared memory.

参数

shm

A shared memory segment obtained from shm_attach().

key

The variable key.

返回值

Returns the variable with the given key.

更新日志

版本 说明
8.0.0 shm expects a SysvSharedMemory instance now; previously, a resource was expected.

hello everyone i came up with some sort of solution to the shm_get_var()
returns false on error/returns a boolean false variable problem.

test script

<?php
   
    error_reporting
(E_ALL);
   
ini_set('display_errors', '1');
   
    echo
'<pre>';
    echo
ini_get('sysvshm.init_mem');
   
    require_once(
'ClassShmWrapper.php5');
   
   
$nKey = ftok(__FILE__,'x');
   
   
$myShm = new ClassShmWrapper($nKey);
   
   
$myShm->attachToSegment();
   
   
#$mValue = range(1,rand(3,10));
    #$myShm->nVarKey = count($mrValue);
   
    #$mValue = FALSE;
   
    /*
    $mValue = TRUE;
    $myShm->nVarKey = 1;
    $myShm->mVar = $mValue;
    $myShm->putVarToSegment();
    */
   
    #$myShm->nVarKey = 2;
   
$myShm->nVarKey = 1;
   
    if (
$myShm->getVarFromSegment()) {
        echo
"found var in shm\n";
    }
    else {
        echo
"could NOT find var in shm\n";
    }
   
   
$myShm->detachFromSegment();
   
    echo
"\ndumping " . '$myShm->mVar' . "\n";
   
var_dump($myShm->mVar);
   
?>

class for using the shm_ functions & class for storing boolean values

<?php
   
   
class ClassShmWrapper {
       
        public

A fully functional sample  ...

<?php
echo "<PRE>\n";

define("FOPEN_RESOURCE", 1);

$shm_id = shm_attach(FOPEN_RESOURCE);
if (
$shm_id === false) {
    exit(
"Fail to attach shared memory.\n");
}

$fopen_resource = fopen("/tmp/phpSharedMemory.bin", "w");

$a =  array("Teste1", 1);
if (!
shm_put_var($shm_id, $a, $a)) {
    exit(
"Failed to put var 1 in shared memory $shm_id.\n");
}

echo
"F: ".$a[0].":".$a[1]."\n";
$pid = pcntl_fork();

if(
$pid == -1) {
  die(
"could not fork\n");
}
else if (
$pid) {
   
$a = array("Teste2", 3);
    if (!
shm_put_var($shm_id, $a, $a)) {
        exit(
"Failed to put var 1 in shared memory $shm_id.\n");
    }
    echo
"P1: ".$a[0].":".$a[1]."\n";
} else {
   
sleep(2);
   
$a = shm_get_var($shm_id, $a);
    echo
"P2: ".$a[0].":".$a[1]."\n";
}
pcntl_wait($status);
exit();
?>

To follow up on the posts by anonymous, Bob Van Zant and chris at free-source dot com below (or, as must people inexplicably write, above) regarding the PHP warning and FALSE that shm_get_var returns if the variable key doesn't exist:

My tests (with PHP4.3.4) show that defined() is useless here. Because the function defined(string) checks whether the constant whose name is string exists, the code
<?php
if ( defined(@shm_get_var($mutex, $mutex_key)) {
   ...
}
?>
acts the same ("..." does not get executed) whether the variable is defined or not--unless $mutex_key happens to identify a valid string that happens to be the name of a constant. :)

Rather,
<?php
if ( @shm_get_var($mutex, $mutex_key) === FALSE ) {
   ...
}
?>
works, provided the object that was stored isn't actually FALSE (via <?php shm_put_var($mutex, $mutex_key, FALSE); ?>)

It would be nice to have a completely air-tight solution, though.  D'oh!

You will still receive a notice use @:

if(!defined(@shm_get_var($mutex, $mutex_key))) {
       shm_put_var($mutex, $mutex_key, 0);
}

This seems to work fine to detect the lack of presence of a key in shared memory and then init it to 0 when found:

if(!defined(shm_get_var($mutex, $mutex_key))) {
        shm_put_var($mutex, $mutex_key, 0);
}

If any body has problem with shm_get_var();

this code correctly work with boolean-values^
<?php
if(shm_has_var ($this->shm_mem_id, $_varno)){
           
$_value = shm_get_var($this->shm_mem_id, $_varno);
        }else{
           
$_value = NULL;
        }
?>

I was annoyed by this warning when using shm_get_var():

Warning: shm_get_var() [function.shm-get-var]: variable key 2 doesn't exist in PATH_TO_FILE on line 64.

You can suppress the warning by changing the error reporting level. To do this for just the page in question, include the following line:

<?php
    error_reporting
(E_ERROR);
?>
