Re: [PHP] building php with DB extension without installing DB locally
Quoting Jochem Maas [EMAIL PROTECTED]: hi guys, I want to build php with firebirdDB (ibase) extension (for the purposes of this exercise it could just as well be mysql) without installing firebird on the local machine (i'm moving the DB to a seperate server) ... I can't figure out how to do this apart from installing firebird, building php then removing firebird again - although I'm not sure this would even work. Does anyone know the correct way to go about such a thing? TIA Think it's the same as compiling with the mysql extension. You need the client libraries to build PHP. So just install the firebird client and compile against that. That should work .. right? -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

I wasn't thinking - it never occurred to me I could install the client libs without the [db] server a quick look with 'apt-cache search' comfirms that I can. thanks for the wake up call :-) np :) -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Does anyone know the correct way to go about such a thing? In order to compile, you need AT LEAST the client headers, sometimes referred to as the -devel package in RPMs. It will probably be easiest to just install/uninstall, though... -- Some people have a gift link here.
