Phar::stopBuffering
Phar::stopBuffering
(PHP >= 5.3.0, PECL phar >= 1.0.0)
Phar::stopBuffering — Stop buffering write requests to the Phar archive, and save changes to disk
Description
public void Phar::stopBuffering ( void )
Phar::stopBuffering()
is used in conjunction with the Phar::startBuffering() method. Phar::startBuffering() can provide a significant performance boost when creating or modifying a Phar archive with a large number of files. Ordinarily, every time a file within a Phar archive is created or modified in any way, the entire Phar archive will be recreated with the changes. In this way, the archive will be up-to-date with the activity performed on it.
However, this can be unnecessary when simply creating a new Phar archive, when it would make more sense to write the entire archive out at once. Similarly, it is often necessary to make a series of changes and to ensure that they all are possible before making any changes on disk, similar to the relational database concept of transactions. The Phar::startBuffering()/Phar::stopBuffering()
pair of methods is provided for this purpose.
Phar write buffering is per-archive, buffering active for the foo.phar
Phar archive does not affect changes to the bar.phar
Phar archive.
Return Values
No value is returned.
Errors/Exceptions
PharException is thrown if any problems are encountered flushing changes to disk.
Examples
Example #1 A Phar::stopBuffering() example
<?php
$p = new Phar(dirname(__FILE__) . '/brandnewphar.phar', 0, 'brandnewphar.phar'
$p['file1.txt'] = 'hi';
$p->startBuffering(
var_dump($p->getStub()
$p->setStub("<?php
function __autoload(\$class)
{
include 'phar://brandnewphar.phar/' . str_replace('_', '/', \$class) . '.php';
}
Phar::mapPhar('brandnewphar.phar'
include 'phar://brandnewphar.phar/startup.php';
__HALT_COMPILER("
$p->stopBuffering(
var_dump($p->getStub()
?>
The above example will output:
string(24) "<?php __HALT_COMPILER("
string(195) "<?php
function __autoload($class)
{
include 'phar://' . str_replace('_', '/', $class
}
Phar::mapPhar('brandnewphar.phar'
include 'phar://brandnewphar.phar/startup.php';
__HALT_COMPILER("
