# Examples

Example #1 Object oriented style

`<?php
$queue = '/queue/foo';
$msg = 'bar';
/* connection */
try {
$stomp = new Stomp('tcp://localhost:61613');
} catch(StompException $e) {
die('Connection failed: ' . $e->getMessage());
}
/* send a message to the queue 'foo' */
$stomp->send($queue, $msg);
/* subscribe to messages from the queue 'foo' */
$stomp->subscribe($queue);
/* read a frame */
$frame = $stomp->readFrame();
if ($frame->body === $msg) {
var_dump($frame);
/* acknowledge that the frame was received */
$stomp->ack($frame);
}
/* close connection */
unset($stomp);
?>`

The above example will output something similar to:

    object(StompFrame)#2 (3) {
      ["command"]=>
      string(7) "MESSAGE"
      ["headers"]=>
      array(5) {
        ["message-id"]=>
        string(41) "ID:php.net-55293-1257226743606-4:2:-1:1:1"
        ["destination"]=>
        string(10) "/queue/foo"
        ["timestamp"]=>
        string(13) "1257226805828"
        ["expires"]=>
        string(1) "0"
        ["priority"]=>
        string(1) "0"
      }
      ["body"]=>
      string(3) "bar"
    }

Example #2 Procedural style

`<?php
$queue = '/queue/foo';
$msg = 'bar';
/* connection */
$link = stomp_connect('ssl://localhost:61612');
/* check connection */
if (!$link) {
die('Connection failed: ' . stomp_connect_error());
}
/* begin a transaction */
stomp_begin($link, 't1');
/* send a message to the queue 'foo' */
stomp_send($link, $queue, $msg, array('transaction' => 't1'));
/* commit a transaction */
stomp_commit($link, 't1');
/* subscribe to messages from the queue 'foo' */
stomp_subscribe($link, $queue);
/* read a frame */
$frame = stomp_read_frame($link);
if ($frame['body'] === $msg) {
var_dump($frame);
/* acknowledge that the frame was received */
stomp_ack($link, $frame['headers']['message-id']);
}
/* close connection */
stomp_close($link);
?>`

The above example will output something similar to:

    array(3) {
      ["command"]=>
      string(7) "MESSAGE"
      ["body"]=>
      string(3) "bar"
      ["headers"]=>
      array(6) {
        ["transaction"]=>
        string(2) "t1"
        ["message-id"]=>
        string(41) "ID:php.net-55293-1257226743606-4:3:-1:1:1"
        ["destination"]=>
        string(10) "/queue/foo"
        ["timestamp"]=>
        string(13) "1257227037059"
        ["expires"]=>
        string(1) "0"
        ["priority"]=>
        string(1) "0"
      }
    }
