There are several trains of thought on this and Im sure Sterling will
make sure you are aware of the other :)
You will need to get the dtor handle from the xmlnode extension (The
le_* varaibles) to register/work with resources (other than that you can
do what you want).
Now you could add phpi_get_le_*() calls to the xmlnode extension but
this causes problems when one is configured as a shared library and the
other as statically build into PHP. Your best bet is probably to use the
new Zend API call ZEND_GET_RESOURCE_TYPE_ID(<resource_name>) (Please
note this will not be in any PHP distribution until 4.0.7). This will
return the resource type id of the resource type with the name
<resource_name> which you can then use it as the second value to the
ZEND_REGISTER_RESOURCE macro (and any other calls that require this
value :)).
See pdf.c and cpdf.c for example usage (grep for le_gd) and zend_list.h
for the implementation of the macro. The return value should be "cached"
locally as this call requires iterating though a hash table which isnt
that fast :)
