ob_end_flush

(PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7, PHP 8)

ob_end_flushアクティブな出力用バッファをフラッシュ(送信)し、アクティブな出力バッファをオフにする

説明

ob_end_flush(): bool

この関数は、 (PHP_OUTPUT_HANDLER_FINAL フラグを指定して) 出力ハンドラをコールし、その戻り値をフラッシュ(送信)するとともに、 アクティブな出力バッファの内容をクリアし、 かつそれをオフにします。

PHP_OUTPUT_HANDLER_REMOVABLE を指定して アクティブな出力バッファを開始しないと、 ob_end_flush() は失敗します。

ob_end_flush() は、PHP_OUTPUT_HANDLER_FLUSHABLE を指定せずにアクティブな出力バッファを開始したとしても、 その出力ハンドラの戻り値をフラッシュ(送信)します。

パラメータ

この関数にはパラメータはありません。

戻り値

成功した場合に true を、失敗した場合に false を返します。

エラー / 例外

この関数は失敗すると E_NOTICE が発生します。

例1 ob_end_flush() の例

以下は全ての出力バッファをフラッシュする簡単な方法の例です。

<?php
while (@ob_end_flush());
?>

参考

  • ob_start() - 出力のバッファリングを有効にする
  • ob_get_contents() - 出力用バッファの内容を返す
  • ob_flush() - アクティブな出力ハンドラの戻り値をフラッシュ(送信)する
  • ob_get_flush() - アクティブな出力ハンドラの戻り値をフラッシュ(送信)し、その内容を文字列として返した後で、それをオフにする
  • ob_end_clean() - アクティブな出力用バッファをクリア(消去)し、出力のバッファリングをオフにする

A note on the above example...

with PHP 4 >= 4.2.0, PHP 5 you can use a combination of ob_get_level() and ob_end_flush() to avoid using the @ (error suppresion) which should probably be a little faaster.

<?php

while (ob_get_level() > 0) {
ob_end_flush();
}

?>

best way to compress a css code:

<?php
header
('Content-type: text/css');

ob_start("compress");
function
compress($buffer) {
// remove comments
$buffer = preg_replace('!/\*[^*]*\*+([^/][^*]*\*+)*/!', '', $buffer);
// remove tabs, spaces, newlines, etc.
$buffer = str_replace(array("\r\n", "\r", "\n", "\t", ' ', ' ', ' '), '', $buffer);
return
$buffer;
}

include(
'./template/main.css');
include(
'./template/classes.css');

<?
php
ob_end_flush
();
?>

Include in <head>:
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="/design.php" media="all" />

If you enable zlib.output_compression then level count will be increased by 1 and then this code:

<?php while (ob_get_level()) { ob_end_clean(); } ?>

will just freeze your script.

It appears that you can call ob_end_flush() regardless of whether or not output buffering was ever started using ob_start(). This can prove useful because it saves you from having to create conditional statements based on whether a particular function or include file has started output buffering. You can simply call the ob_end_flush() anyway and if there's output in the buffer, it will be sent, otherwise your script will just keep on keepin' on.

Wanted to speed things up and put some processing after the page has been delivered to the client. That drove me almost insane, but finally, I found a solution (php 5.2.5):

<?php
ob_start
(); // outer buffer
ob_start(); // inner buffer to catch URL rewrites and other post processing
session_start(); // registers URL rewriter with inner buffer!
echo '...';
// log performance data to log files *after* delivering the page!
register_shutdown_function(array($benchmarkclass,'log_perf_data'));
// now flush output output to client
ob_end_flush();
// need to calculate content length *after* URL rewrite!
header("Content-length: ".ob_get_length());
ob_end_flush();
// now we close the session and do some arbitrary clean-up tasks
// registered using register_shutdown_function()
session_write_close();
?>

Apart from being mostly redundant, ob_end_flush() can be downright damaging in some weird cases.

Actual example: a particular page on an Intranet website which would appear blank on Internet Explorer 6 when ob_start('ob_gzhandler') was called in the beginning and ob_end_flush() at the end.

We couldn't figure out what made that page special no matter what we tried. The ob_ functions were placed in scripts which were include()'d by all pages just the same, but only that page did this.

Even stranger, the problem only appeared on direct browser/server connections. Whenever the connection passed through a proxy the problem dissapeared. I'm guessing some kind of HTTP encoding headers mumbo-jumbo.

Solution: unless you really need it in particular cases, remove the ob_end_flush() call and rely on the builtin, automatic buffer flush.

NOTE: In IIS, flushing the output buffer doesnt work until you add the following to your web.config file under the PHP handler:

responseBufferLimit="0"

I discovered this when I would only get SSE output when the script failed.

It appears that ob_end_flush() is very important if you are looping. For instance if you are using a mass mailer that uses the output buffer for creating HTML content. Use ob_end_flush() to avoid server errors.

ob_end_flush() isn't needed in MOST cases because it is called automatically at the end of script execution by PHP itself when output buffering is turned on either in the php.ini or by calling ob_start().

Remember that chromium browser (and maybe other webkit-based browsers) have some issues with ob_end_flush.

http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=31410

You may use
header("Content-Type: text/plain");
to solve those issues if you do not need html.
