PHP console (php.exe -a)

Hi all,
I don't know if I am stupid or what but I can't find out how to send
typed code to execute.

> php.exe -a
Interactive mode enabled

Pressing or didn't execute code. Please, help me!

(I am running PHP 5.3.0 on Win XP.)

Thanks

I never worked with php as an interactive console application but as far as I can see on the php.net homepage [1], the -a switch is used to call a script which then takes direct user input from the console via STDIN stream instead of working with predefined variable values.

Hi,

Did it just print out back the stuff you typed in?

When working with -a don't forget to add the opening ' like you would in a regular script.

BTW on *nix if you build PHP with gettext support there's real
interactive mode support (a command prompt, history, completion, and no
need to type the ' Windows.

Re: PHP console (php.exe -a)

Hello Sascha,
yes, running "php -a" should await input from STDIN but it should
means keyboard. And I don't know how to end STDIN input from keyboard
(how to tell to php.exe "execute what I typed").

I am typing typing but I don't know how to force php to execute what I
typed on keyboard :-(

Thanks!
Libor

Re: PHP console (php.exe -a)

Please look at these articles what I mean... PHP should contains live
interactive console (like Perl or Python have also) to test short
snippets of code.

http://blog.thinkphp.de/archives/44-More-PHP-power-on-the-co mmand-line.html
http://www.webmasterworld.com/forum88/11023.htm

But I don't know how to send typed snippet for execution.

It should works like this:

% php -a
interactive mode enabled

php > $foo = 1;
php > $bar = 4;
php > echo $foo + $bar;
5

Re: PHP console (php.exe -a)

If PHP isn't linked against libedit/libreadline then you won't get the
nice interactive command-line. I have no idea if the Windows build is
built against either of those libraries or whether those libraries even
work on Windows, but if you are not getting the nice command line
editing, that is likely the cause.

Re: PHP console (php.exe -a)

Hello Rasmus,
I know what you are talking about. "Nice" means auto-completion for
variables, builtin functions, etc. after pressing key. But basic
support (without auto-completion) should be still available in
Windows.

Is there anybody with Linux to try run "php -a" and tell us how to
send typed code to execution?

Thanks
Libor

You just type it in and hit Enter. There is no trick. And without
libreadline there really is no point. You might as well just use -r

Maybe you have another PHP-CLI then me on *nix (5.2.11)? Without libreadline
it's working a similar way on *nix, of course I have to type the starting
" | # php -a
| Interactive mode enabled
|
| | $a=5;
| $a++;
| echo $a.PHP_EOL;
| 6
At this point I can enter more code. Or exit PHP with:
| ^C
|
| #

But on Windows that's buggy:
| # php -a
| Interactive mode enabled
|
| | $a=5;
| $a++;
| echo $a.PHP_EOL;
|
Nothing happens on Windows at this point. The cursor is in the next line
waiting for input. But, if I now enter "^C", I can see the result:
| 6
|
| #
So on Windows the whole code/input is executed at once and not step by step.
And because PHP is also terminated with "^C", I can't enter additional code.

Regards,
Carsten

just tried with PHP 5.3 on XP and Windows 7 and both directly output code when the echo command is called, not when the script is terminated.
Which PHP version did you use that shows the buggy behaviour?

All PHP 5.3.x versions. With PHP 5.2.x it's correct and the same behavior
like on *nix.

Just curious, if I test this more then one time, sometimes I can see the
output with "^C", and sometimes not?

BTW: It's always a VC6-TS build and XP SP3 32bit.

Carsten

As far as I remember the interactive mode never got ported to windows.

PS: interactive mode means that you can enter php line of code and
they will be executed everytime you press enter.

OK, but as you can read in my other Mail, it's working with PHP 5.2.x on
Windows exactly like on *nix. Only PHP 5.3.x is not working correctly on
Windows.

Maybe a silly question:
If it's not ported to Windows, why is "php -a" working, the "-a" parameter
is exepted?

Carsten

Re: PHP console (php.exe -a)

Hi all,

had to check my php installation today and just realized that php.exe called from command line was not the same as used by my Apache2 webserver (because of different locations set in PATH and PHPRC environment variables).

Means that my test from yesterday was not performed with PHP 5.3.x, but with 5.2.9. The 5.2.x branch seems to work correctly whereas 5.3.x is definitely broken.

Pierre wrote:
> As far as I remember the interactive mode never got ported to windows.

you are talking about the newer PHP 5.3 branch, right? Otherwise 5.2.x versions would behave as the 5.3 branch. Do you know why it was not ported?

Sascha

As mentioned, CTRL+Z is the END-OF-TEXT character needed to terminate
input from STDIN.

Can someone confirm that CTRL+Z/F6 is the same exit mechanism for non

On the surface, for Windows, the interactive mode offers nothing extra
and in fact offers less than non-interactive mode.

Specifically, autoload functions, though registered (either by having
__autoload() or by using spl_autoload_register()), are not invoked for
missing classes.

So, for windows, what's the point of the interactive mode?

ctrl-z signals end-of-file. On *nix that's ctrl-d (ctrl-z on *nix is for job
control).

An end-of-file signal also exiting PHP. So you can't type additional PHP code.

And you also don't see the main problem/difference:
With PHP5.2/*nix or PHP5.2/Win I can see the output from an echo() after a
. With PHP5.3/Win (don't have PHP5.3/*nix) I must exit from PHP
(ctrl-z / ctrl-c) to see the output from an echo().

PHP5.2:
| D:\PHP\php-5.2.12-win32>php -n -a
| Interactive mode enabled
|
| | echo 'test';
| test^Z
|
| D:\PHP\php-5.2.12-win32>

PHP5.3:
| D:\PHP\php-5.3.1-win32>php -n -a
| Interactive mode enabled
|
| | echo 'test';
| ^Z
| test
| D:\PHP\php-5.3.1-win32>


So for now it looks like PHP5.3/Win is buffering the output (and the whole
buffer is flushed while PHP is exiting). PHP 5.2 is not buffering the output
and you can see the output immediately.

Carsten

That's the same output you get on *nix. So no difference between *nix and
Windows in this point.
