Re: Extending PHP

Hi Rasmus, Thank you for the link - and sorry about the empty messages ;-) The slides did help to some extend. But I'm only able to compile as described in slide 28. When I try to compile it as a shared module no .so file is generated. I do however get the following warnings: *** Warning: This library needs some functionality provided by -lstocks. *** I have the capability to make that library automatically link in when *** you link to this library. But I can only do this if you have a *** shared version of the library, which you do not appear to have. *** Warning: libtool could not satisfy all declared inter-library *** dependencies of module stocks. Therefore, libtool will create *** a static module, that should work as long as the dlopening *** application is linked with the -dlopen flag. The dlopening appliations is that PHP itself?
