# php_stream_gets

(no version information, might be only in CVS)

php_stream_gets -- Read a line of data from a stream into a buffer

## Description

char * php_stream_gets ( php_stream * stream, char * buf, size_t maxlen)

php_stream_gets() reads up to `count`-1 bytes of data from `stream` and copies them into the buffer `buf`. Reading stops after an `EOF` or a newline. If a newline is read, it is stored in `buf` as part of the returned data. A NUL terminating character is stored as the last character in the buffer.

php_stream_read() returns `buf` when successful or NULL otherwise.

The internal position of the stream is advanced by the number of bytes that were read, so that subsequent reads will continue reading from that point.

This function may block in the same way as php_stream_read().
