udp socket programming in php - php

Question

I'm trying to run a udp socket on windows cmd..here's my server script..
<?php
error_reporting(~E_WARNING);
if(!($sock = socket_create(AF_INET, SOCK_DGRAM, 0)))
{
$errorcode = socket_last_error();
$errormsg = socket_strerror($errorcode);
die("Couldn't create socket: [$errorcode] $errormsg \n");
}
echo "Socket created \n";
// Bind the source address
if( !socket_bind($sock, '0.0.0.0' , 80) )
{
$errorcode = socket_last_error();
$errormsg = socket_strerror($errorcode);
die("Could not bind socket : [$errorcode] $errormsg \n");
}
echo "Socket bind OK \n";
while(1)
{
echo "Waiting for data ... \n";
//Receive some data
$r = socket_recvfrom($sock, $buf, 512, 0, $remote_ip, $remote_port);
echo "$remote_ip : $remote_port -- " . $buf;
//Send back the data to the client
socket_sendto($sock, "OK " . $buf , 100 , 0 , $remote_ip , $remote_port);
}
socket_close($sock);
I get a response on running the above script that reads as follows:
Socket created
Socket bind OK
Waiting for data ...
Below is my client script..
<?php
error_reporting(~E_WARNING);
$server = '127.0.0.1';
$port = 9999;
if(!($sock = socket_create(AF_INET, SOCK_DGRAM, 0)))
{
$errorcode = socket_last_error();
$errormsg = socket_strerror($errorcode);
die("Couldn't create socket: [$errorcode] $errormsg \n");
}
echo "Socket created \n";
while(1)
{
//Take some input to send
echo 'Enter a message to send : ';
$input = fgets(STDIN);
//Send the message to the server
if( ! socket_sendto($sock, $input , strlen($input) , 0 , $server , $port))
{
$errorcode = socket_last_error();
$errormsg = socket_strerror($errorcode);
die("Could not send data: [$errorcode] $errormsg \n");
}
//Now receive reply from server and print it
if(socket_recv ( $sock , $reply , 2045 , MSG_WAITALL ) === FALSE)
{
$errorcode = socket_last_error();
$errormsg = socket_strerror($errorcode);
die("Could not receive data: [$errorcode] $errormsg \n");
}
echo "Reply : $reply";
}
On running the above socket, i get the following output..
Socket created
Enter a message to send:[random input]
Could not receive data:[0] The operation completed successfully
What's causing this?..after i enter some input, the last line above is displayed instead of 'Reply : [random input]'
Thanks in advance

Answer 1

use this flag "MSG_PEEK" instead of "MSG_WAITALL" in socket_recv function.
Thank you.
