Question about "shared" v "not-shared"?

Hi there, Whilst trying to figure something else out, I was trawling through the php_config.h and config.log files and playing with various ./configure options. It seems like most of the --with-xxx options and some --enable-xxx options can take "shared" as an argument. When I try this with, for example, bcmath. It all seems to compile fine but it doesn't show up as a module when running phpinfo();. Is this correct behaviour? (I guess it is as it is dynamically linked in when you need it rather than built into the code directly). If this is O.K. what are the benefits/drawbacks of either approach and is there a complete list of which options can take "shared" as an argument? Just an interested question - I don't have an error or problem this time round... ;-) Alan _________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com.
