Andrei,

Thanks _very_ much for your attention to this detail -- I like your 
solution ;-)

Most gratefully,
Tom Henry

I don't have any objections to enabling WDDX by default, especially
since it's always mentioned as one of the "cool" technologies when PHP
is talked about. I will go ahead and make it enabled unless someone
objects and gives me a good reason not to.

We all have photographic memories, it's just
that some of us don't have any film.

Adrei

I guess the underlaying thread was lost -- the whole issue is just that I 
don't have control over compiling PHP in the first place.  I needed a 
solution that could be implemented w/o being the one compiling 0 I I 
compiled then I wouldn't have the problem at all.

And - that's why I have requested that (since the WDDX is now native) that 
it be _always_ be embedded (like XML is already) without needed the config 
line switches.

Maybe you can help me understand why this is not a reasonable idea (I've 
made this request before but never get a reply)?

Sincerely thanks and much appreciation for all your contributions to PHP,
Tom Henry

add --enable-wddx=shared to your compiler line, then after it compiles,
run 'make install' and after that just use extension=wddx.so from
php.ini. You can remove --enable-wddx=shared after all this is done.

Andrei,

Could you explain more what you mean by "build it as a shared library"?  I 
have no Idea what it means.

What do I need, and what are the steps to do that?

Thank you very much for responding to my dilemma - I have been trying to 
get some answer to this for a long time.

Sincerely,
Tom Henry

You can build it as a shared library and load it via php.ini.

[PHP-DEV] Enabling WDDX

[Tom]

I run websites on server farms - and am usually faced with difficulties as a 
result of the PHP configuration being at the whim of the ISV staff - 
especially when version upgrades are made - they frequently fail to include 
all the needed -with- and -enable- statements.

If (my assumption) WDDX is now 'native' to PHP --- is there a way to have it 
always included in the build, as opposed to rely on it being included in the 
configure command line?

Else is there a way to allow it to be turned on through either the php.ini 
file or though the .htaccess technique?

Caveat - I have tried to use both php.ini and .htaccess to asccomplish this 
((on v4.04pl1)) but was unsuccessful.  If should have worked the please 
describe what I _should_ have done -or- if it's a prob with that 'version' 
only please advise.

Many thanks,
Tom
