This is the code I have so far, I wonder if it's correct?
$handle = fopen($file, 'w') or die("can't open file");
$closed = fclose($handle);
while($closed){
DOAWESOMETHINGS(); // btw I only want to have this run once for each handle
$closed = false;
}
Thank you so much!
You can check whether the handle has been closed or not using this statement
if(!is_resource($handle)){
//Handle closed
}else{
//Handle still open
}
Therefore, if you need to ensure that fclose has worked before running the next function, you can use this loop:
while(is_resource($handle)){
//Handle still open
fclose($handle);
}
do_awesome_things();
Note: You should also use break;
to end while loops when you need to. In this instance the loop will not end until the handle is closed.
