Is it possible to use Java to achieve real-time database updates in a PHP script?
To achieve real-time database updates in a PHP script, you can use Java to create a WebSocket server that listens for updates and sends them to the PHP script in real-time. The PHP script can then process the updates and update the database accordingly.
<?php
// PHP script to receive real-time updates from a Java WebSocket server
// Connect to the Java WebSocket server
$socket = socket_create(AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, SOL_TCP);
socket_connect($socket, 'localhost', 8080);
// Continuously listen for updates from the Java WebSocket server
while (true) {
$update = socket_read($socket, 1024);
// Process the update and update the database
// For example, you can use SQL queries to update the database
// $update contains the update data received from the Java WebSocket server
}
