Async auto-off on windows?

Thanks for bringing this to our attention. I've had a preliminary investigation into taking another approach and it looks as though this restriction may be able to be removed if it is successful. I will get back to you with the results of this in the next couple of days.

To assist with this could you please post your versions for PHP, Apache and Windows.

Cheers,

I've had a look into this, and the good news is I've managed to get the forked cURL method working (on my Win 8.1 PHP 5.3 environment), so the feature should eventually be possible in some form. Unfortunately, due to Windows limitations, namely the 8kb command line argument limit, curl.exe breaks on large JSON payloads. I've looked into providing the payload as a file argument, but this poses additional challenges regarding the deletion of the temp file when the background sending is complete.

As such windows async requires additional work, and for now I'm sticking with the stream_socket_client method for that platform. I will revisit this shortly with an eye to provide a robust, scalable async feature on Windows.
