[PHP] PHP Extensions as Shared Objects?
This might be a dumb question with an obvious answer somewhere, but I'm wondering if it's possible to build php extensions as shared objects that plug into the PHP binary much like an apache shared module plugs into apache. Is PECL close to this? Sorry if this is obvious. Searches on the topic are pretty noisy given that php's installation as a shared module itself for Apache are a fairly popular topic.

Yes. See http://www.php.net/dl (though a lot of hosts disable this functionality for security reasons). -- Postgresql php tutorials http://www.designmagick.com/ -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Fortunately, I'll have full control of the hosting environment in the context this matters. :) dl is definitely interesting, but I'm worried that runtime invocation might mean performance hits. Is there a way to do load/startup time inclusion? -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Is there a way to do load/startup time inclusion? you could put it in your php ini file extension = foo.so then I believe the impact will be on the first instance for that php engine. so in fastcgi mode, you'd only have the hit once every PHP_FCGI_MAX_REQUESTS when the child restarts... -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
