Examples
Example #1 SplTempFileObject() example
This example writes a temporary file in memory which can be written to and read from.
<?php
$temp = new SplTempFileObject();
$temp->fwrite("This is the first line\n");
$temp->fwrite("And this is the second.\n");
echo "Written " . $temp->ftell() . " bytes to temporary file.\n\n";
// Rewind and read what was written
$temp->rewind();
foreach ($temp as $line) {
echo $line;
}
?>
The above example will output something similar to:
Written 47 bytes to temporary file. This is the first line And this is the second.
