Re: Compiler? (Was Re: [PHP] PHP site on CD-ROM)

The Encoder does in fact all of the optimizations of the Zend Optimizer (including ones that aren't enabled in the plug-in Zend Optimizer, because performing them every time may take more than what they would save, something that is not an issue in a one time compilation. The reason it's not named 'Compiler' is indeed because people usually (and erroneously) expect all compilers to produce machine language code. Zeev At 13:41 25/1/2001, Adam Wright wrote:

The compiler has become the encoder, because it's rather hard to meet the expectations of a 'compiler' (many would expect it to produce binaries and heavily optimised code). Encoder makes more sense, based on what the product does. adamw ----- Original Message ----- From: "Angus Mann" <binaries@teetime.com.au> To: <php-general@lists.php.net> Sent: Thursday, January 25, 2001 11:41 AM Subject: [PHP] Compiler?

You would need to go through a web server for it to work.

I seem to recall seeing something on the Zend site a while back about a "compiler" for PHP that was in the pipeline. After the store was launched I can't find anything. Am I imagining things, or does it look like Zend pulled the plug? Did anyone else in here see it? :) Thanks, Angus.

Can I run a PHP/Apache/MySQL services on a CD-ROM. We have PHP

there any similar solutions for this? Im thinking of a text-file

and access it via javascript but have no much time to study on

this. If php
