Bug #15036 Updated: PHP should be able to control module load order.

ID: 15036 Updated by: yohgaki Reported By: yohgaki@php.net Old Status: Open Status: Critical Old Bug Type: Feature/Change Request Bug Type: Dynamic loading Operating System: Any Old PHP Version: 4.0CVS-2002-01-14 PHP Version: 4.1.0 or later New Comment: This is actually a bug from 4.1.0 :) It would be a feature request for 4.0.6 or less. Fixing this will likely require API change, configuration file changes, etc. I think the bug should fixed before PHP5. Change category and status. Problem Description: PHP module loader does not take into account module dependency. Therefore, there are problems with session and related modules since 4.1.0. The cause is session was made an internal module and initilized at first while older versions initilize session module later. Currently, session and related modules have this problem AFAIK. However, this proplem would be more serious issue when PECL module became a standard place for extensions. IMHO, it is important to discuss and fixing this problem ASAP. (BTW, this issue is not only applicable to dynamic loading, but also static module init) Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-01-15 01:23:10] derick@php.net It's not a bug, but a feature request.

PHP should be able to control module load order with smart way to intialize module who has dependency correctly. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=15036&edit=1
