PHP Stream Functions


PHP Stream Introduction

Streams are the way of generalizing file, network, data compression, and other operations which share a common set of functions and uses. In its simplest definition, a stream is a resource object which exhibits streamable behavior. That is, it can be read from or written to in a linear fashion, and may be able to fseek() to an arbitrary location within the stream.
A wrapper is additional code which tells the stream how to handle specific protocols/encodings.


Installation

The Stream functions are part of the PHP core. There is no installation needed to use these functions.
