[Asterisk-Dev] PHP AGI - seems to ignore anything but EXEC

[Paul Cadach]

Hi,

Don't forget to add fflush($stdout) after issuing each command because PHP uses
buffering for its output.

I've uses next function to interact with Asterisk from PHP script and it works
well:
function ast_exec($command)
{
        global $stdin, $stdout;
        fputs($stdout, "$command\n");
        fflush($stdout);
        $str = chop(fgets($stdin, 1024));
        return($str);
}


WBR,
Paul.
