# com_event_sink

(PHP 4 >= 4.2.0, PHP 5, PHP 7, PHP 8)

com_event_sink — Connect events from a COM object to a PHP object

### 说明

com_event_sink(variant `$variant`, object `$sink_object`, array|string|null `$sink_interface` = `null`): bool

Instructs COM to sink events generated by `variant` into the PHP object `sink_object`.

Be careful how you use this feature; if you are doing something similar to the example below, then it doesn't really make sense to run it in a web server context.

### 参数

`variant`

`sink_object`

  `sink_object` should be an instance of a class with methods named after those of the desired dispinterface; you may use com_print_typeinfo() to help generate a template class for this purpose.

`sink_interface`

  PHP will attempt to use the default dispinterface type specified by the typelibrary associated with `variant`, but you may override this choice by setting `sink_interface` to the name of the dispinterface that you want to use.

### 返回值

成功时返回 `true`， 或者在失败时返回 `false`。

### 更新日志

版本 | 说明
--- | ---
8.0.0 | `sink_interface` is nullable now.

### 示例

示例 #1 COM event sink example

`<?php
class IEEventSinker {
var $terminated = false;
function ProgressChange($progress, $progressmax) {
echo "Download progress: $progress / $progressmax\n";
}
function DocumentComplete(&$dom, $url) {
echo "Document $url complete\n";
}
function OnQuit() {
echo "Quit!\n";
$this->terminated = true;
}
}
$ie = new COM("InternetExplorer.Application");
$sink = new IEEventSinker();
com_event_sink($ie, $sink, "DWebBrowserEvents2");
$ie->Visible = true;
$ie->Navigate("http://www.example.org");
while(!$sink->terminated) {
com_message_pump(4000);
}
$ie = null;
?>`

### 注释

警告

Prior to PHP 8.0.0, calling exit() from any of the event handlers is not supported, and may cause PHP to hang. This can be worked around by throwing an exception from the event handler, catching the exception in the main code, and calling exit() from there.
