I have a socket server that listens to connection on port 5001, when a connection is accepted and data is received i request my database to create a packet of data in a particular format and write it back to client.
To make the data transmission more reliable i have to implement a TCP retry in PHP, how do i go about this my current implementation uses a thread class that fires a thread to check and see if ack has been received for that packet till timeout else it retires 3 times till timeout, but havent hand any success with the same.
Is there a better way to implement the same.
