I need to keep a persistent connection open across multiple page requests. You cannot put PHP resources into the session.
My solution is to trigger a deamon on the first request and keep the PHP resource there. I then need to get the deamon to talk to my different page requests. I could do this the long way by using a database or file but I was wondering if I could somehow share the session…
Is this possible, and if so… how??
If you have a better solution to maintain persistent connections or if this is a particularly rubbish idea… please let me know.
Shared sessions is a non-starter. Will use a queuing mechanism or MySQL to talk to my deamon.
