# socket_read

(PHP 4 >= 4.1.0, PHP 5)

socket_read -- Reads a maximum of length bytes from a socket

## Description

string socket_read ( resource socket, int length [, int type] )

The function socket_read() reads from the socket resource `socket` created by the socket_create() or socket_accept() functions. The maximum number of bytes read is specified by the `length` parameter. Otherwise you can use \r, \n, or \0 to end reading (depending on the `type` parameter, see below).

socket_read() returns the data as a string on success, or `FALSE` on error (including if the remote host has closed the connection). The error code can be retrieved with socket_last_error(). This code may be passed to socket_strerror() to get a textual representation of the error.

> Замечание: socket_read() returns a zero length string ("") when there is no more data to read.

Optional `type` parameter is a named constant:

- PHP_BINARY_READ - use the system `recv()` function. Safe for reading binary data. (Default in PHP >= 4.1.0)

- PHP_NORMAL_READ - reading stops at \n or \r. (Default in PHP <= 4.0.6)

See also socket_accept(), socket_bind(), socket_connect(), socket_listen(), socket_last_error(), socket_strerror() and socket_write().
