Can it also be implemented like the > new ini.xml sections are? Most (extension specific options) of them are implemented the same way: {extension}/configure.xml. But some are not (yet), I am on the way to move the rest. But some general configure options will stay somewhere (like misc ini options not in ini.xml, your point c) ). > Once genPHP_INI_ENTRY.php > is in working order (soon), it will generate: > > a) Master list (replaces the list currently found > in the ini_set docs) > b) {extension}/ini.xml for each extension > c) Misc list for all not in a ini.xml > > So how about we do the same for compile time options? Autogeneration in the same way would be fine. Do you have an idea how to? Maybe by parsing configure.in and config.m4 files? php4/scripts/ext_skel_ng from Hartmut might be of interest. After a quick look, support for ini and constants seems to be there, maybe for configure options? > I think the php3 options (which afaik would not get > autogenerated) should be in a separate file near the > the php3-php4 migration section. If we agree on this suggestion I'll move them to such a place:-) Friedhelm
