eio_symlink - Create a symbolic link

SYNOPSIS
resource eio_symlink (string $path, string $new_path, [int $pri = EIO_PRI_DEFAULT], [callable $callback = NULL], [mixed $data = NULL]) DESCRIPTION
eio_symlink(3) creates a symbolic link $new_path to $path. PARAMETERS
o $path - Source path o $new_path - Target path o $pri -The request priority: EIO_PRI_DEFAULT, EIO_PRI_MIN, EIO_PRI_MAX, or NULL. If NULL passed, $pri internally is set to EIO_PRI_DEFAULT. o $callback -$callback function is called when the request is done. It should match the following prototype: void callback(mixed $data, int $result[, resource $req]); o $data -is custom data passed to the request. o $result -request-specific result value; basically, the value returned by corresponding system call. o $req -is optional request resource which can be used with functions like eio_get_last_error(3) o $data - Arbitrary variable passed to $callback. RETURN VALUES
eio_symlink(3) returns request resource on success or FALSE on error. EXAMPLES
Example #1 eio_symlink(3) example <?php $filename = dirname(__FILE__)."/symlink.dat"; touch($filename); $link = dirname(__FILE__)."/symlink.link"; function my_symlink_cb($data, $result) { global $link, $filename; var_dump(file_exists($data) && is_link($data)); if (!eio_readlink($data, EIO_PRI_DEFAULT, "my_readlink_cb", NULL)) { @unlink($link); @unlink($filename); } } function my_readlink_cb($data, $result) { global $filename, $link; var_dump($result); @unlink($link); @unlink($filename); } eio_symlink($filename, $link, EIO_PRI_DEFAULT, "my_symlink_cb", $link); eio_event_loop(); ?> The above example will output something similar to: bool(true) string(16) "/tmp/symlink.dat" SEE ALSO eio_link.
