PHP-GTK without a connection to X

Wed, 24/12/2008 - 12:50 — Kasper Johansen

It is such a shame, that to use functions like io_add_watch(), you have to have a connection to X. This prevents us from creating "real" server-applications, which can run on a machine without any graphical user-interface running on it.

Does anyone know how to get around this? Is there another extension which can do the same as io_add_watch(), timeout_add() and more? Or is it possible to "fake a X-server"?

non-blocking streams

You could do a infinite loop, doing stream_select() over a non-blocking stream (stream_set_blocking()) to do that and making time comparisions (in each loop) to acomplish a effect like Gtk::timeout_add(). Thus, doing so could be cpu expensive if you set a zero timeout in stream_select, or you dont make a pause while looping, so you have to be carefull with that.

PHP-GTK without graphics ?

One thing I don't understand is why you want to make code independent from a graphical UI and still be based on PHP-GTK. "Normal" web-oriented PHP doesn't need X and would seem to fulfill your need, would it not ?
