  • Detailed description:

    Wrapper around the pcntl_fork() stuff, with a API set like Java language.
    Practical usage is done by extending this class, and re-defining the run() method.
    This way PHP developers can enclose logic into a class that extends PHP_Fork, then execute the start() method that forks a child process.
    Communications with the forked process is ensured by using a Shared Memory Segment; by using a user-defined signal and this shared memory developers can access to child process methods that returns a serializable variable.

    The shared variable space can be accessed with the tho methods:
    o void setVariable($name, $value)
    o mixed getVariable($name)

    $name must be a valid PHP variable name;
    $value must be a variable or a serializable object.
    Resources (db connections, streams, etc.) cannot be serialized and so they're not correctly handled.

    Only runs on *NIX systems, because Windows lacks of the needed pcntl ext.
