>PHP 4.0 for Windows comes in two flavours - a CGI executable
>(php.exe), and an ISAPI module (php4isapi.dll).
what about php4apache.dll? shouldn't that be mentioned too?
BTW, that reminds me: ASF guys have changed the names of the
win32 Apache modules to match the unix names; apachefoo.dll
became mod_foo.so. shouldn't PHP follow this pattern?
>The latter is new to PHP 4.0,
maybe "somewhat new"? it's been around for quite some time.
>the PHP ISAPI module uses the thread-safe version of the PHP
>code, which is completely new to PHP 4.0
well, win32 Apache is also threaded, and win32 mod_php.so is
thus thread-safe, sans the horror IIS users experience.
(no pun intended, I'm just glad I'm on the other side of the
fence :)
so, I wouldn't say it's "completely new"...
Hmm, after reading the whole file I realized it doesn't mention
installation for win32 Apache. Is this information someplace else?
