socket_get_option

(PHP 4 >= 4.3.0, PHP 5)

socket_get_option -- Gets socket options for the socket

Description

mixed socket_get_option ( resource socket, int level, int optname )

The socket_get_option() function retrieves the value for the option specified by the optname parameter for the socket specified by the socket parameter. socket_get_option() will return FALSE on failure.

The level parameter specifies the protocol level at which the option resides. For example, to retrieve options at the socket level, a level parameter of SOL_SOCKET would be used. Other levels, such as TCP, can be used by specifying the protocol number of that level. Protocol numbers can be found by using the getprotobyname() function.

SO_RCVTIMEO Reports the timeout value for input operations.
SO_SNDLOWAT Reports the minimum number of bytes to process for socket output operations.
SO_SNDTIMEO Reports the timeout value specifying the amount of time that an output function blocks because flow control prevents data from being sent.
