proc_terminate
(PHP 5)
proc_terminate — Kills a process opened by proc_open
Description
bool proc_terminate
( resource $process
[, int $signal
] )
proc_terminate() allows you terminate the process and
continue with other tasks. You may poll the process (to see if it has
stopped yet) by using the proc_get_status() function.
However this is only possible with PHP 5.2.2 or newer, as previous versions
destroyed the given process resource
.
Parameters
-
process
-
The proc_open() resource that will
be closed.
-
signal
-
This optional parameter is only useful on POSIX
operating systems; you may specify a signal to send to the process
using the kill(2) system call. The default is
SIGTERM.
Return Values
Returns the termination status of the process that was run.
