From: zaxebo1 at gmail dot com Operating system: irrelevant ;ubuntu 14.04 PHP version: Irrelevant Package: CGI/CLI related Bug Type: Feature/Change Request Bug description:[feature req:php-cli] zipped module like .pyz in python , .jar in java Description: ------------ In python, if i have multiple program files: "a1.py, a2.py, __main__.py, dir1/b1.py, dir1/b2.py" and then i zip it as myprogram1.pyz then i can run it as "python myprogram.pyz" (__main__.py inside the zip file will be executed first). It is easy to distribute a single file myprogram1.pyz see: http://blogs.gnome.org/jamesh/2012/05/21/python-zip-files/ === in java also we can bundle all the .class files into a single .jar file and run it java -jar myprogram1.jar ======== Now, i request you to kind provide a feature in php-cli that if i have lots of files like: a1.php , a2.php, __main__.php dir1/a4.php etc. (say, which uses PHP-GTK for a Desktop application). Then i should be able to bundle them as zip file, say myprog1.zip or myprog1.pz (pz =php's zipped executable archive). And then i can distribute this "single file" and execute it as: php myprog1.pz This will execute the __main__.php file among all the other .php files, inside this .zip archive myprog1.pz . -- Edit bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=68340&edit=1 -- Try a snapshot (PHP 5.4): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=68340&r=trysnapshot54 Try a snapshot (PHP 5.5): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=68340&r=trysnapshot55 Try a snapshot (trunk): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=68340&r=trysnapshottrunk Fixed in SVN: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=68340&r=fixed Fixed in release: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=68340&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=68340&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=68340&r=needscript Try newer version: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=68340&r=oldversion Not developer issue: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=68340&r=support Expected behavior: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=68340&r=notwrong Not enough info: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=68340&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=68340&r=submittedtwice register_globals: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=68340&r=globals PHP 4 support discontinued: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=68340&r=php4 Daylight Savings: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=68340&r=dst IIS Stability: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=68340&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=68340&r=gnused Floating point limitations: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=68340&r=float No Zend Extensions: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=68340&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=68340&r=mysqlcfg
