proc_get_status — Get information about a process opened by proc_open()
Description
proc_get_status() fetches data about a process opened using proc_open().
Parameters
processThe proc_open() resource that will be evaluated.
Return Values
An array of collected information. The returned array contains the following elements:
| element | type | description |
|---|---|---|
| command | string | The command string that was passed to proc_open(). |
| pid | int | process id |
| running | bool | true if the process is still running, false if it has terminated. |
| signaled | bool | true if the child process has been terminated by an uncaught signal. Always set to false on Windows. |
| stopped | bool | true if the child process has been stopped by a signal. Always set to false on Windows. |
| exitcode | int | The exit code returned by the process (which is only meaningful if running is false). Prior to PHP 8.3.0, only the first call of this function returned the real value, the following calls returned -1. |
| cached | bool | As of PHP 8.3.0, this is true when the exit code is cached. Caching is necessary to make sure the exit code is not lost by subsequent calls to process APIs. |
| termsig | int | The number of the signal that caused the child process to terminate its execution (only meaningful if signaled is true). |
| stopsig | int | The number of the signal that caused the child process to stop its execution (only meaningful if stopped is true). |
Changelog
| Version | Description |
|---|---|
| 8.3.0 | The "cached" entry has been added to the returned array. Prior to PHP 8.3.0, only the first call returned the real exit code. The "cached" entry indicates that the exit code was cached. |
