FAM monitors files and directories, notifying interested applications of
changes. More information about FAM is available at
http://oss.sgi.com/projects/fam/.
A PHP script may specify a list of files for FAM to monitor
using the functions provided by this extension.
The FAM process is started when the first connection
from any application to it is opened. It exits after all
connections to it have been closed.
Opmerking: Deze module is niet verkrijgbaar voor de
windows versie van PHP.
This extension uses the functions of the
FAM library, devoloped by SGI. Therefore you have to download and
install the FAM library.
To use PHP's FAM support you must compile PHP --with-fam[=DIR] where DIR is the
location of the directory containing the lib and include
directories.
Deze extensie gebruikt geen configuratie regels.
Deze constanten worden gedefineerd door deze extensie, en
zullen alleen beschikbaar zijn als de extensie met PHP is
meegecompileerd, of als deze dynamisch is geladen vanuit een script.
