PHP Fiber::isTerminated() Method: Usage and Examples

The PHP Fiber::isTerminated API performs a focused operation on an object or value. The examples below show its effect on actual data.

Reports whether the Fiber has completed execution.

What Is Fiber::isTerminated in PHP?

Reports whether the Fiber has completed execution.

Syntax:

Fiber::isTerminated(): bool

This operation has no parameters.

Return type declared by PHP: bool. The value or side effect is demonstrated in the examples below.

Example 1: Basic Usage

This example uses a small input to make the main behavior visible.

<?php

$fiber = new Fiber(function (): string {
    $input = Fiber::suspend("waiting");
    return "completed: " . $input;
});
$fiber->start();
$fiber->resume("approved");
var_dump($fiber->isTerminated());

Output:

bool(true)

Reports whether the Fiber has completed execution.

Example 2: A Different Input

A different set of values shows the same operation in another situation.

<?php

$fiber = new Fiber(function (): string {
    $input = Fiber::suspend("request");
    return "completed: " . $input;
});
$fiber->start();
$fiber->resume("accepted");
var_dump($fiber->isTerminated());

Output:

bool(true)

A fiber must be suspended before resume() or throw(); getReturn() is available only after successful termination.

$fiber->start();
$fiber->resume("verified");
var_dump($fiber->isTerminated());
