Method Detail

__construct (Constructor) [line 305]

System_Daemon __construct(
)

Making the class non-abstract with a protected constructor does a better job of preventing instantiation than just marking the class as abstract.

See: System_Daemon::start()
Access: protected

[ Top ]

autoload [line 321]

void autoload(
string
$className)

Autoload static method for loading classes and interfaces.

Code from the PHP_CodeSniffer package by Greg Sherwood and Marc McIntyre

Access: public

Parameters:

string $className — The name of the class or interface.

[ Top ]

defaultSigHandler [line 725]

void defaultSigHandler(
integer
$signo)

Default signal handler.

You can overrule various signals with the setSigHandler() method

See: System_Daemon::setSigHandler()
See: System_Daemon::$_sigHandlers
Access: public

Parameters:

integer $signo — The posix signal received.

[ Top ]

getOption [line 528]

mixed getOption(
string
$name)

Gets any option found in $_optionDefinitions Public interface to talk with with protected option methods

Access: public

Parameters:

string $name — Name of the Option

[ Top ]

getOptions [line 542]

array getOptions(
)

Gets an array of options found

Access: public

[ Top ]

isDying [line 779]

boolean isDying(
)

Wether the our daemon is being killed, you might want to include this in your loop

Access: public

[ Top ]

isInBackground [line 768]

boolean isInBackground(
)

Wether the class is already running in the background

Access: public

[ Top ]

isRunning [line 789]

boolean isRunning(
)

Check if a previous process with same pidfile was already running

Access: public

[ Top ]

log [line 575]

boolean log(
integer
$level, string
$str, [string
$file = false], [string
$class = false], [string
$function = false], [integer
$line = false])

Almost every deamon requires a log file, this function can facilitate that. Also handles class-generated errors, chooses either PEAR handling or PEAR-independant handling, depending on: self::getOption("usePEAR").

Also supports PEAR_Log if you referenc to a valid instance of it in self::getOption("usePEARLogInstance").

It logs a string according to error levels specified in array: self::$_logLevels (0 is fatal and handles daemon's death)

See: System_Daemon::$_logLevels
See: logLocation
Throws: System_Daemon_Exception
Access: public

Parameters:

integer	`$level`	—	What function the log record is from
string	`$str`	—	The log record
string	`$file`	—	What code file the log record is from
string	`$class`	—	What class the log record is from
string	`$function`	—	What function the log record is from
integer	`$line`	—	What code line the log record is from

void restart(
)

Restart daemon process.

See: System_Daemon::_die()

setOption [line 494]

boolean setOption(
